Buggy rail for 1911 Stanley Model 63

I am working on the seats for the restoration of my Model 63 that is a touring style of body. I understand I need to put a buggy rail on the back seat to hold the top. I have found a 1909 Ford Model T Touring buggy rail that seems very similar to pictures I seen of the buggy rail used on Model 63s like mine. Can anyone advise me if using a 1909 Model T touring buggy rail is close enough to correct to be a good choice with some minor adjustments? I see that the Model T top saddle arm is bolted to the buggy rail, while the Stanley top saddle arm is welded and the Stanley saddle arm is a different shape.
Also, what Model T top irons would be appropriate for my Model 63? Any suggestions for a good supplier?
Thank You,
Alex Beamer
