Actually got an email, ficmrepair.com has 1 for sale!, if you are pointing at the cable shroud vs weather seal strip.

I just found a dealer in Michigan and ordered it today. $15.97 + tax and shipping. Now to identify the plastic fasteners to hold it in place. Are those generic or ???

Just received a message from La Fontaine Ford in Lansing Michigan. I bought the last one they had. It was $42.88 with shipping. The part was $15.99. ~$27 for shipping is kinda high but since I couldn't find one, it a necessary evil. I prefer OEM parts any chance I get.
I consider this part to be essential since its purpose is to contain the wire bundle across the engine bay over the turbo which gets a little warm during operation. Using a makeshift part or simply zip tying may work for some but I prefer to be safe than sorry. I did see the ss aftermarket one and as I saw one person comment that a conductive material to contain wires would not be the best idea. It would never break but if any exposed wire touched it, it wouldn't be pretty. Hence the preferred material being non-conductive. Should it break for any reason in the future, I can piece it back together with one of my best friends, JB Weld.
Once this is here and my lift gate latches/actuator assembly is installed, I should be done replacing parts for awhile, I hope!

If you're concerned about heat, than a product similar to this would be more suited for heat reflection than a hard plastic cover.

They also make wire heat shield with a Velcro closure to put over exiting wiring.

And of curse Amazon has cheaper knockoffs that probably work just as well.
