2000 Stroke need waterpump advice

[Acesneights1]

My father's truck just spit the waterpump bigtime. Fan blade is damaged as well. If you guys could some quick pointers on replacement. Looking down from bird's eye view it actually looks pretty easy to do which is what worries me... . Here's my questions since I have not worked on a PS.

Where should I get the new one ? Advanced Auto has New for 150$
Where should I get the fan ? Ford ? Is there a better place ?
Oviously I should do both hoses and thermostat. Will generic Thermostat be ok or does it need to come from Ford ?
It almost looks like I can pull the WP without removing any accessories ??
I am a diesel Mechanic so I don't need step by step, just want to make sure there are no surprises I am not seeing. Also what Coolant goes in it ? I'll assume the truck is all stock. My Dad is crippled , My 76 yr old Mother uses the truck to plow the driveway. So it doesn't tow or get used hard or require IMHO any crazy upgrades. Just need to fix it.
Thanks.

Never followed up on this but was pretty easy sstraight forward job. ONly issue I had was the stupid o ring for the themostat leaked. I had to pull it back apart and use some snot on it. I am generally agaisnt using sealants when not nessicary but in this case it was nessicary. Definitely don't want to let a WP on a stroke go to long. I don't know how long Mom was driving it like that but it wore a big gouge into the timing case cover.
