Default Source for machined fuel rail?

Hello Dear Rennlisters,
I have an '88 944 N/A and my original fuel rail leaked, I replaced it with a used one and it also leaks. During my search I saw that there are aftermarket billet rails available but they all looked like a machined bar without brackets and cups for fuel injectors.

Can you please recommend a drop-in aftermarket fuel rail?
Thank you,

If you know where the leaks are located you can braze it around every joint and it will never leak again, and much cheaper than an after market rail that is not braced right. Engine vibration is the killer on any fuel rail. I have brazed two fuel rails and not one leak.

Cheers,
Larry
