SFP+ Network Expansion Card for TVS-671

I'd like to add a SFP+ port to my trusty 12yo TVS-671 (running the latest QTS). I haven't found any QNAP documents (board layout) identifying which of the two slots is the gen 3 x8. Any help on this would be appreciated.

I did find this -- https://youtu.be/nclB3hPKmbw?si=uQHnX4t7qmcqOTau&t=117

It seems QNAP made the TVS-671 requiring a non-standard bracket for expansion cards...not low-profile or 'standard'. Anyone know where I can get just this bracket?

Due to the age of the TVS-671, nearly all QNAP white-label network cards are EOL. My research suggests an Intel X520 chipset plays well with QNAP and most SFP+ transceivers. Are there any other SFP+ cards you'd recommend? Thanks!
