Default Is this the starter going?

Heard lots of weird *** noises from starters. Never heard this one before. I took it to the dealer for an oil change and they said it's the starter (but the flexplate/flywheel were a tiny bit dinged but just fine). Also, if it is the starter - what's a reputable brand to buy one from that's not motorcraft? I looked up a Motorcrafat one and it's like $530 so that's a big nope.

(for those on mobile) 3.5L Ecoboost Turbo 2017

$274.79 plus core charge on Rockauto if this is the correct one. Ford Parts Giant is $328.23.

@digitaltrucker @armitage Don't forget the RockAuto discount codes! There is a thread in the general forums section with several. Mine has already expired.
