1978 244 steering rack change 200 1978

So, I'm changing over my 1978 244 steering rack. It's manual cam rack. I have it out and it appears to have a bad bushing on the passenger side, there is a lot of play. I can actually wiggle the shaft around.

I pulled a power rack from my 1990 parts car, but the steering shaft spline on the 90 model one is a different size (larger) and also longer.

does anyone have any advice about changing this over, or an idea of where I could get any parts to rebuild the manual rack, or at least get the bushing?
