Would probably want to find anything close to that to see if the face comes from another product or ad, etc or see if any of those artists (if they can be found) for the Faction War book recall it.

He didn't actually advertise it as a rare variant cover or anything which would certainly lead me to believe that he's being honest about it. Have you asked him to provide information on where he got it from? It's possible that it was an in-house mock up, maybe? I haven't dug through any catalogs but that strikes me as filler/proto art.

If I were you, I'd be sorely disappointed, but glad that I was refunded. Anyway, The Great Modron March is one of the highly sought PS adventures, so you could resell it and get something out of this mess.However, it looks that whoever did that trick took great pains to achieve it...
