Car vs van split liability.

So I was involved in an accident with a van my insurer is saying its a split liability currently as he was pulling into the junction as I pulled out so it was low speed I have done no damage to my car but the van had a dent in the front which the driver said has caused the fan to hit his radiator even though theres no sign of leaking fluids.

I basically told my insurer within 30 mins of it happening its now been 2 weeks and they havent heard anything from their insurer about a possible claim even though the van driver has had a rental van for 13 days and there van has been taken to a garage within 3 days of it happening.

Is it possible they havent even let there insurer know and repairing it themselves as the van is 21 years old and will probably be a write off if they go through insurers.

My insurers basically said there is no timeline to when they have to respond by but surely if its a 50/50 split then both insurers have to agree before they can fix the vehicle?
