replace coolint plastic insert into radiator it is leaking antifreeze any suggestins as to source of

Hello
On my 1992 Ford FT900 truck the fitting that is installed EXTERNALLY into the radiator ( a Dorman 10691 will not work); for the overflow/expansion tank is leaking. I used some Teflon tape around the tread on the plastic vent nipple and it has for now stopped the leak.
Has any one had this problem and how did you fix it. Is there a source for the Ford plastic threaded radiator overflow/vent nipple, I have not found one?
I have attached three images; maybe double click on the image to see the entire photo on your screen.
My email is info@tisovich.com thank you Bob

No luck for me using the MPC I have. It's not called out separate from the radiator in the Illustrations, AFAICT.
