(Option A -There is a 2 part putty that works well and is available at most auto part hlouses. Its is designed for this purpose.

(Option B- DO NOT WELD unless tank is out of vehicle and filled with CO2 or water to prevent EXPLOSION. This should ONLY be performed by an professional.

(Option C- is a piece of fuel line that squeezes into the hole then screw a bolt into the hose to expand in and seal. This works well if your stuck on the side of the road and need a way to ge home.
