I doubt you will find such a gas filler tube commercially.

I would remove the tube from the car, and use a hot air gun to heat the plastic and bend it in a bit.

Post some pics of your car, I would like to see how your wheels look. I have 20 inch Axis Penta's on my E39 540i6 and love it... Yeah my rear rubs a little even after rolling the fenders the best to my ability. I plan to have them professionally stretched at a body shop when I do the M5 bumper swap.
