The guy walked to a piece of pegboard with a bunch of different elements on it and browsed till he got a match. Less than fifteen dollars.

Get the 240 volt 4000 watt element. There is a much less chance of burning it out in the future running it on 120 volts. Do not let the selling place talk you out of it. At 120 volts it produces the same amount of heat and uses the same power.
