There also used to be metal rose jointed ones on eBay from Poland or somewhere.
A bit difficult to install due to the metal licking pin, but work well. I don't know a part number, but I believe the bellows are identical to P38 or similar vintage Range Rover cruise control ones.

I thought that the idea of the plastic ones was that they would break if the bellows mechanism started to stick, But if you fit metal ones, you risk damaging the bellows mechanism.
But I’ve been wrong before! I’ve got a little stash of the plastic ones that I bought some years ago, on ebay I think, with a minimum order of 2 or 3 pairs.

These ebay links may help but I am unsure of compatibility so please do your research.
