So I am able to follow these directions and setup Nordvpn on OPNsense.

https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/Router/1292598142/OPNsense-19-1-setup-with-NordVPN.htm

What I want is to not have the entire network but just an alias over this gateway. I tried leaving the old firewall rules and setting up new rules and changing lan net to this alias. However, I check the ip of the device its obviously not using this gateway. When i follow the directions as is my entire network switches and picks up the Nord IP addy.

Any help on getting just this alias of devices to use the NORD gateway would be greatly appreciated.

So you want one or more devices to use the NordVPN gateway?
I explained this a couple of days ago in the german QNAP forum with screenshots, hope this helps:
