The fuel pressure regulator is located on the fuel rail mine is in the very front but I don't know if it differs for the years. Mine is an 01 but you can't miss it. There is a vacuum hose that runs to it. As for brand I wouldn't know

While the Jeep is running disconnect the vacuum from the regulator and if raw fuel leaks from where the vacuum connects then its bad if its dry then its still good

The problem is a slow start can be caused by a number of things ( coolant temp sensor, idle air control,crankshaft position sensor,losing fuel pressure when it sits) its not gonna be fun but if you do some searching there is a way to test all the sensors that way your not throwing a bunch of money at it
