I have a bad air rail elbow insert fitting. This fitting sends air to the fuel pressure regulator. Nissan does not have this part in their part book. They told me i would have to buy the entire fuel rail. Nissan nsd90a 90 hp tldi engine. Anybody know where i might be able to find this fitting?

Is the fitting cracked? Could it be soldered? If it is leaking where it attaches to the plate, you will need a new plate:

use a brazing rod, or silver solder at a minimum.

do not use lead solder (not enough strength)
