Dropout recomendations

Hey all,
I was hoping to pick your brains on a rear dropout for a customer of mine. I am looking for a track style dropout with tension screws, similar to what Paul Components used to offer. Short of that, something more ornate than just the laser cut offerings would be welcome. My internet research has not yielded any good options and was hoping you all might collectively have an one that I did not uncover.
Thanks for your time and for sharing your expertise!

Ceeway and Nova also have a couple track ends with the adjuster bolts.

Much more available without the adjuster. Is there any particular reason why you think you want them?

my customer requested them for his new bike. I think he saw the Pauls ones years ago and had his heart set before he learned they were no longer in production.
Thanks for the resources.
