I doubt your buddies handheld said bad injector. Probaly said cylinder misfire, which COULD be a bad injector (also could be bad coil pack. Wire. Plug. among other things)
Yes, you can change out 1 injector if you want to. rail has to come off, but you can replace just one, yes.
Hissing sound? Hard to say without hearing it....
