They were in repro, or at least advertised, a few years ago by Empire Motors of El Paso. Whether they ever got enough orders to make them I don't know. I've seen a couple of OEM 2x4 Packard manifolds for sale over the last year going for about $800.

At Hershey over the last two years there were 4 complete Carib setups, one a 55 and 3 for 1956; blasted and painted manifold, correct carbs by Daytona Parts, all linkage and fuel lines, choke stove pipe and wrapping, choke air baffle, decals and wing nuts, and a nicely restored bat wing air filter. As I recall asking prices were about $4000, pretty much in line with Jack Vines' estimates.
