Yes the top photo is a composite of four images.  You really need to get one that shows the complete bone.

When you say shoulder blade do you mean scapula?

This is what one looks like from the T rex Sue.   Illustration "C" and the opposite side "D" is complete but includes the coracoid which is fused so you can compare against.

Another illustration again with coracoid

Think this is the same orientation as D in the last illustration

Do you have a formation but more important a location (state and county) where it was found?

 

Size  ?  Tape measure shows two different numbers
