YES!
Replace the broken engine mount that stuffed the fan into the
radiator in the first place!
Engine mounts are a weak spot on E30's. If you drive the car even
moderately fast, consider replacing E30 engine mounts with M6 mounts. The
latter fit perfectly and are beefier enough to withstand more (ab)use.
You will also want to replace the broken fan as well.
See a mechanic if you are uneasy about lifting the engine up to
replace the mounts (and you probably will be without a lift in your garage).
Expect to be charged around 3 hours of labor plus parts.
