After searching FOREVER, here is how the Eclipses do it:

They have the same problems with a restrictive stock FPR and Walbro as we do. All that is needed is to chop the plate off the stock FPR and weld on an AN fitting, then run your steel braided lines.

I keep hoping Alpine will sell their block/adapter...

Using the methodology described in that link above, you could indeed make your own rather easily...provided you have welding equipment, or know someone/a shop to do the welding for you. That is a great find!
