The tank has a ding and needs to be modified in the bottom.

I've removed the tap mounting and the fuel gauge. I could re-use them
after the modifications. The tank will be cut under the tape and then
bent for supporting the new sheet of metal.

While the tank is opened, I remove most of the ding from the inside. |

I've bent the side of the tank to check how it goes.
I'll have a very good clearance for the upper pipes and the heat
evacuation (good cooling).
