The part number appears to be 4B3 260 403H. Denso is the OE supplier it seems.

There's a Denso one on ebay. Or a Nissens one on autodoc.

Anyone know where I can get the right condensor part number 4B3 260 403H I am struggling to source one as everywhere is out of stock.
I ve found one 8e0260401d which is very close but the fitting on the passenger side is different so not sure if it can be made to fit.

The problem with that one is that the mounting brackets are different and one of the refrigerant hoses exits on the wrong side.
This one (below) is almost identical to the original OEM part and should be plug & play.
P.S. originals are still available from Audi (tradition) but at £572 not cheap!
Hey, check out AKS DASIS Air conditioning condenser in the AUTODOC app

The pipes are wrong. I have 2 had rom Autodoc which listed the right part number but the picture was different so ordered them hoping it would be correct and the picture was just a generic one but when they arrived they looked nothing like the one on the RS6.

Autodoc are bloody annoying for that. Had the same with a starter motor for the M3 recently.
This one looks like what you posted:

Or Audi tradition have them:
