BUMP! Has anyone successfully patched this area where it holds for awhile? I have been smelling a hint of gasoline from time to time near my old 02LS after fill-up... Blamed it on nearby containers and things until today. Its leaking fuel, looks to be from near filler neck area. I will obviously confirm but assuming it needs a tank. Not one in my state, used or new. No aftermarket apparently? Lexus wants nearly $1,000. At this point, will probably hold out for a used tank + shipping from a totaled southern car, REALLY don't want to scrap a great (getting rusty) car over this. Suggestions?

Physically leaking fuel near or out of tank. 100% positive its not the fuel cap. Does not look to be coming from the filler neck. Rust belt car.
