You sure it is weeping around the gasket? That is what I thought but it was actually coming from the screw threads

Seems fixed now - used the fuel resistant goop and re tightened.
Filled to over flow and it's dry at the sending unit.
Ran a new ground wire, so gauge working too.......got to keep it all good since it's a rare and extremely valuable V21 series :)

I want to pull my sending unit to inspect the aluminum tank. I assume I should replace the gasket. I searched ebasic power and didn't find anything. What material should I use to make one and what sealant to goop it (or the old one) in?
