That pretty much narrows it down. The regulator is a snap to change and costs about $25 at an auto parts store.
First, relieve the fuel system pressure. Remove the gas cap. Remove the plenum. Now you'll need a set of safety torx bits. They look like normal torx bits but have a hole in the end and the screw itself has a normal torx head with a small post sticking up in the center. (get the bits at any parts store) Remove the screws holding the regulator cap, remove the regulator and make sure none of the parts broke off and stayed in the hole it sits in. Install the new regulator making sure you install the reenforcing ring on the outside just like the old one. New gaskets for the plenum, close gas cap and turn the key on to prime the system (do it a couple of times). Check the schrader for pressure present at it. If there still isn't pressure then you have internal blockage in the pressure line on the manifold somewhere.
