Check out the wiring and measure the resistance of the injector should be 11.6-12.6 ohms.

I have been looking and so far its looking like a dealer item.But I am still looking I would try a pick apart or junk yard a new one is going to be expensive.Especially if it comes only as the whole power train harness.
