Leaking Fuel pressure sensor

Currently stuck on the side of the road between Tyler and Corsicana TX with a leaking fuel pressure sensor. The sensor was replaced last Oct. so only about 6 months old. Leak appears to be between the body of the sensor and the attached connector body. Fmca roadside assist is currently looking for a tow. Being Easter, it may be awhile.

Last fall, it took a couple of days to order in the part. I was near Temple at that time.

I don't see any way to temporarily seal the leak.  I don't think I could wrap it but I may be able to gook the whole thing up with JB Weld.

I'll try to figure out how to post a picture using my phone.

Any suggestions?

It's the silver body in the middle of the picture.

Does anyone within 200 miles of here gave a spare sensor that I can have and replace?

PM me and we can trade phone numbers if anyone wants to talk.
