Can't help with originals, but I used these (when I couldn't find the ones I took off!) - https://www.mcgillmotorsport.com/brake-residual-pressure-valve-10psi-for-drum-brakes-676/
I've read a few posts that suggest you can replace the valves and the regulator with the inline regulators from later golfs. That may be an option.
Is your regulator faulty? I read a post on the Facebook group last night suggesting they are pretty easy to service.

only on cabbies mate, tiptop gris have residual brake valves on the brake lines going to the rear keep some pressure in the lines to reduce pedal travel

The thingys on the bottom of a cabbie master cylinder and the residual valves in the tintop brake lines are 2 completely different things mate... ( as i understand it, never having owned a cabbie )

The cabriolet things do the same job as the compensator which sits near the fuel tank on the tintop..

made sense to just buy the ones paceman suggested so I've sorted myself out now
if anyone has a brake compensator valve for sale please let me know
