Some type of zip tie support will attach to the fuel rail cross-over, I suppose...
You could fashion a metal strap to go around the pipe to attach to the plenum bolt. My car is missing those attachment points from the aluminum pipes as well. Seems that they were somewhat flimsy and required care in removal.
