I got a leaky one, can the piston be replaced, or the rubber thing on the end of it. I'm talking about [KIP] solenoids

The piston can be replaced. You can buy them here:

The part is towards the bottom "KIPA3X293 Replacement Plunger With Black Epr Seat, Repair Parts"
$5 is not a bad cost to fix a $50 part.

You can replace the "Plunger" assembly. Replacement parts are available from Kip.

The urethane seals are best for CO2. (the 06 code in the valve). Cost from Kip distributor in Farmington Hills is ~$10 each.
