Replacement pump for IM Ghost skimmer

I recently purchased a IM 20 gallon tank that came with a ghost skimmer. The skimmer was too loud so I took the pump apart and noticed that the impeller shaft had rust on it and was partly broken.

I tried looking for replacement impeller, but apparently IM doesn't sell pump parts. I may be wrong, but I did look around and didn't find anything.

This is the pump:

If I don't find just the spare impeller, I would have to replace the pump itself (I'd hate to do that because the rest of the pump is functional)

Should I go with the OEM pump or look for something else that is more quiet and reliable? Would love to get suggestions.
