It is a bad time to get parts, when my car got damaged recently I waited 2 months as the parts were not available. The body shop tried and could not get the part any where in the country. I tried too and had the same experience.
As suggested may be SOA can help in getting the part as it is hazardous driving with the fumes.
I also think it is not only Subaru but it is for all brands at this time as it is very difficult to get parts. I saw at the body shop the other car owners were also frustrated with the current supply chains and shortage of chips. In your case at least you do not need a part with the chip.
Best of luck and I hope the part arrives soon as it is very frustrating.
