I need some serious help here!

I bought a US Fat Tele in which the original owner had swapped out the DH-1 humbucker and installed the Texas humbucker instead.

I love the way the DH-1 sounds and have been trying to find one everywhere, but they are becoming hard to find.

What would you recommend to replace the texas and get a sound more like the DH-1? Also, I want it to look like the DH-1 (nickel cover i believe)

Any suggestions?

The closest thing to the DH-1 is the Duncan/Fender Pearly Gates Plus which is closest to a 'regular' Duncan 59. You'd need what they call a, "Trembucker" though (P/N: TB59-1b) and you'd have to ask for one with a nickel cover. FYI: They ain't cheap!
