Default Looking For Fuel Rail Bleeder Valve on 91 F150

I have looked all over online and in every auto shop around here. Unless I, and the salesmen, are overlooking this, I cannot find this one small piece anywhere. In the fuel rail, right next to the left side valve cover, is a bleeder valve. It looks like a Schrader valve on a tire, but the core is different - it has a rubber gasket on it, whereas a tire's core does not. I cannot find a replacement for this valve core - or even the whole valve - anywhere. Mine has gotten where it will leak a little (or a lot at times) and the engine canot get full fuel pressure.

Does ANYONE know of ANYWHERE where I can get this? I would really like to just replace the core - and I can't believe that there wouldn't be a replacement core available - but at this point I'm open to any solutions I get get.... Thanks.

Box of 10 fuel rail valve cores $7.00 - No one sells just 1 that I could find. Oh and google.com is how I found them for your future searching info reference.

A box of 10 for $7 is worth it to me! Thank you so much.

And... I refuse to use g@@gle, but I did DuckDuckGo this many times before posting this and I could not find anything. I don't know if I just didn't know what they are technically called or what, but again.. I do thank you.

After looking at that, I'm not sure that's the right one, but... at least I know what to call this now. I did find this - https://www.riffraffdiesel.com/repla...rated-1-8-npt/ - The core looks very similar - having that rubber piece on the pin at the bottom. Not sure about the valve body itself, but maybe I can use just the core.

Both would work just different makers. My link $7 gets you 10, Your link $6.62 gets you 1. Weigh out the shipping costs for both for best price.

Oh, ok.. so that that little rubber piece wouldn't matter? If that's the case, then for sure yours is the better deal. Didn't mean to second guess you on that if that's how that comes across. Knowing nothing about this matter, I find it's better to ask questions and look like a fool than keep quite and learn nothing Thank you again.
