Hey all-
this is just sort of a 'conclusion' for anyone out there that comes across this issue, but I ended up finding a really decent set (exact fit) of injector seals/injector mount o-rings at NAPA of all places. The entire set for all 4 injectors was about 4$ total.
I used a combination of xacto knife, pliers, a tiny screw driver and tin snips and slowly sliced off the old rubber and used the tin snips to trim back those weird bell shaped clamps, and worked the tiny screwdriver as far in as possible to pry out the rubber. Once you get some of the rubber out, you can pull it all the way out of the bell clamp and the clamps just fall off. I used scotch brite to clean up the brass nipples.
I also used a q-tip and carefully cleaned out the rail side on the injector- they had some crap in there, and just used some spit and papertowel to clean some carbon buildup off the injector head.
I used some injector clamps and I think it was 5/16" Gates Barricade (high quality) rubber fuel injector line, trimmed it to the right size (compared it to the old one) and popped everything into place using a little vaseline. Car is running *substantially* better now.
