but what if one of the nipples break? I had a gas smell coming from under the hood and it turns out the nipple cracked on the feed side. I googled the part number and the Mazda OEM online stores want $125 ish for a new one.

You may be able to repair the cracked nipple with epoxy. If not, just find a replacement part in a junkyard. These things rarely break or go bad, don't need to buy a new one.

No need to resurrect this thread, when you started another one.
I'm closing this one.
PM me if anyone has a good reason to open this thread back up.
