Find an mk2 EPAS corsa (1998/2000ish), they have a 2.7 t2t rack, then you will just need to swap the track arms to nova ones (not the track rod ends, BTW, the whole arms)

Yes, if you remove the gaiter/boots off both racks you will see a large nut with a compressed lock tab either side. Using a good sized spanner (about 30-32mm IIRC) you can unbolt the track arms and swap them over.

Corsa of that age are Power steering, but the last couple of years of Corsa Bs switched to Electronic PAS (EPAS) which means the column does the powering by a motor and the rack is a standard manual affair, but being power steering the rack is 'quick' so that you dont have to turn it as much as a standard rack.
