Default Cat Clatter

One of the catalytic converters on my 1988 Pierce County SD car is starting to rattle when running. I looked on CL for a stock H-pipe, but found nothing close by (plus I don't want to buy a highly used part that is going to do the same thing that mine is doing). Since we tend to keep our cars stock here, I doubt anyone has a factory H-pipe they'd let go. On our son's low mileage 94 Cobra, we removed the factory H-pipe and put on off-road pipes; after which we had two cats installed to reduce the noise. I have that original H-pipe but I would rather not use it (plus there could be some differences between one for a Fox and a SN95).

So I would appreciate your input. Can I purchase a good, new factory-style h-pipe? Should I pay a muffler shop to replace all of my cats? Are there any other choices?

Thanks!
