Cracked fan blade.

Greetings,
I discovered a leaking water pump on my TD42 yesterday, so I'm off to Autopro to get a replacement this morning......along with belts etc....I figure while I've got it off, I may as well do the lot
However, while I was looking for the leak, I also discovered that my fan has a cracked blade, right down where it joins the hub. It looks like it's been there for a long time (the inside of the crack isn't 'clean' as such.....got loads of crap in there), so is it something I should be looking to rectify ASAP, or could I leave it a while until I find a good one at the wreckers or something?
