I'm sorry your distro pulled the rug from under you at this crucial moment. However if it's that crucial perhaps you should revert your system to a backup before the upgrade, do your invoice work and then when the pressure is off, look at upgrading again and what's needed to get your custom template compatible with gnucash 3.x.
Closer to your question then - you provide little detail on your custom template. However assuming it's based on an existing invoice template, perhaps you can start from the newer version of that template and reapply only your changes ?
