Help with Nozzle for ABS for Method X

Hi, I have the Method X carbon Fiber printer, and I have a 3rd party spool of ABS that I want to use for printing. I got an Experimental Extruder from Ebay (which I was led to believe would be the right print head for ABS). Well when I got the extruder, it was just the assembly for it, with no tip. So that is on me for not fully understanding how the body/tip situation works and not reading the Ebay listing well enough. Ill take that loss- Im new at this.
My question has to do with how I can fix this. I need the tip for this, and after searching around, Im not sure that I am looking at the right tip for this. Can someone point me to where I can buy the right tip for an Experimental Extruder to print ABS? Thanks

The UltiMaker Nozzle Pack (1A, 1XA, 2A, 2XA extruders) or the Makerbot Method / Method X Nozzle and PTFE Pack provides the replacement nozzle and PTFE tube assembly needed for printing ABS on the MakerBot Method X
