Water Separator valve leaks

Water Separator valve leaks
Where can I get a new valve? Genos has on for older versions, and I cant find an online Fleetguard/cummins part lookup site. Mine's leaking pretty good, only when engine is running. I put a 1/2" bolt in the drain tube with a hose clamp but it still leaks...
I wonder if there was actually some water in there and it froze, cracking something??? (I have pretty much never drained the water separator in 90k miles...though I have changed fuel filter about 5 times)
2006 3500

Yes, i just saw an older post about this same issue where the guy reported he had to buy the whole housing, but it came to the dealer without the valve!
Both local parts outfits (oreily autozone) say this is a dealer only item at this time. No NAPA near me.
I got on the phone with local dodge dealer parts guy and he looked it up using my VIN and he says he'll have the part for me tomorrow for 20 bucks, crossing my fingers... I'll report back the part number
This leak only occurs while engine is running, i noticed reduction in fuel economy and oily film around front and rear drivers side wheelwells- its been leaking awhile, i thought the oily film was an axle seal...

Dodge DOES now sell the correct valve alone for the 2006. Part #105080552AB
Only 20 bucks, cured my leak AND my reduced fuel economy, imagine that!
Here's a pic of the part:
