Quoted part number RobG gave, guy did say it was super seeded. Replacement was perfect match, even down to 92c etched into the stat.

GM Source, in a GM box from a dealer = Opened way too soon. Stat was opening at around 75c sending temp crashing down to almost end stop. Could not get temp to rise above 80 no matter what. Also confirmed this by popping it in tub of boiling water, it could move quickly despite kettle water only ~90 :-\
Get it replaced. If you bought as a trade club item, you can get them to replace it for free, whilst you drink their coffee ;)
