Fuel bleeder valve leaking

I found the fuel injector rail bleeder valve- the schrader valve on top of the rail- is leaking slightly on my '87 302 EFI. I've already turned the key a few times and immediately popped the valve to try to spray out any debris that may be sticking it open, no luck.

What can I do about this? I tried to do a parts search on partsamerica.com and didn't see anything but grommets for fuel injectors. Is there a fuel-compatible ring I can replace here or am I going to have to replace the whole valve?

Should be similar to what A/C uses on their schrader valves. Most parts stores (real ones) should have cores for 'em.
