Default WTB: pinion/valve assembly from power 944 steering rack

I tried the wanted forum, but didn't get any help:

I need the entire pinion assembly in the attached picture (borrowed from RENNBAY!!!!).

$15 shipped? I don't care if its from a rack that was leaking, I'm going to be running this rack un-powered. Should be <$5 via USPS first class or priority.

Not for 20 bucks. Need a higher bid.

You are really limiting yourself when you put that price on it. Unless someone has a rack already torn down it's not worth the effort to tear one down for $10.

I've got a used rack that I'll send you for $50. You can tear it down.

I was targeting someone that pulled a badly leaking rack and replaced with a new one. Hopefully they just had the old one dripping on a shelf and could help me out. As for effort, assuming the rack is out of the car, its just 5 10mm bolts holding it in. 2 on the yoke plate at the bottom to release the preload, and 3 on top. 5 minutes to separate from the rack.

Maybe I'll take another look at my pinion. I might be able to fix it with some welding.
