Default rusted fuel rail help

Hey everyone I am trying to help my dad out with his 01 ram 1500 5.9. His passenger side fuel rail is rusted out and leaking. We need to get this replaced obviously for safety reasons. I need help locating a replacement. I found that mopar carriers a fuel rail but I think its both sides and they want $477. Where would be the best place to go? Napa and Auto zone don't seem to carry anything and everywhere else is closed being it is Sunday. Any help would be appreciated.

You aren't going to find anything available today. Nor tomorrow, I should think. Don't drive the truck like that...... could be way to exciting.

You could try these guys on Tuesday. They prolly have what ya need.

It's kind of an esoteric part...... also, keep in mind, that the design changed a couple times over the years.... so, make sure you get one that will fit. (metal or plastic, schraeder valve or no.... (with is better) and male/female connector for fuel line.)

I am looking at this for mine, but I'm not down.

Anyone else go this route? Are you happy with it (for the price?)
