my 89 is plastic, I think it's original. I didn't notice anything to indicate that it wasn't original when I re-did the cover over the gas tank.

The '86's were all aluminum and made by RDS Manufacturing in Florida.

Careful Charlie...if your boat's in the water and you're pumpin' an oil-slick into it you COULD get in a world of trouble just dependin' on where you're doin' it...hate to see ya get a ''tit in the wringer'' over it, but no kiddin', if you can get that oil out of the hull another way, it'd be better...they make oil-soakers for that kinda situation ;) ...good luck w/ it anyway... ;)...

Like rick said...who's got an '88 or '89??...plastic or aluminum tank??... :)...
