Where is it leaking from? I've never heard of this before!
It may be possible to bend the hard lines slightly, and modify the mounting brackets, to make a 6-cyl unit fit the V8 connections. This was discussed previously (link).
I haven't seen a NOS one for sale since before they went NLA, if you find any, I'd like to buy a couple! Used should be easy to locate but you may need to use creative methods to ensure the dessicant inside is dry - maybe heating in an oven at low temp? Then a loooong period of pulling deep vacuum prior to recharge. Or you can try what looks like a proper-fitting, no-name aftermarket V8 unit from a seller in Germany - see post #33 in the thread above.
