Will this one work as a Whitfield ignitor (Profile 20)?

I have a 5 yr old whitfield profile 20 that needs a new ignitor. I know they are 6" x 5/8" and are up to 500w.
Does this one on ebay look like one that would work? (I don't want to burn down the house...)

(broken link removed to http://cgi.ebay.ca/ACRA-Electric-acrawatt-10-72-Cartridge-Heater-6-325W-/140416547698?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20b17a7b72)

If not, (other than the Grainger ones), what would you suggest?
 
500w for the original seems pretty high, IMO, but as long as the one on ebay is the right length and dia., 325 watts should work.

And for $13.95, I'd give it a shot.
