You'll have to replace it. A new part - 17113251 is about $300.

He's a link for used parts, try and get one from one of these places.

Had a freind that done the same. I have his fuel rail sitting in the shop at home. he took it somewhere and they used I think some copression fittings. It dont look the best but it worked. They charged him over a hundred bucks to do it though.
