There is no OEM IMS bearing available from Porsche. What the dealership quoted you was probably a flange reseal, which consists of replacing the seal on the IMS flange - that's why the job looked so cheap. That's it.

There is no part number associated with anything IMS related other than a complete IMS assembly (complete shaft, 3rd revision) OR the flange, seal, and nut. Bearing and bearing support (stud) don't have part numbers, as they were never intended to be replaced.
