Subject:Inside of Vanagon gas tank, was "Fuel Line Vent Hose Clamps"

Are you sealing the inside or outside? I thought the original tanks had an
internal pick-up tube and screen, that you can't get at, so you can't
re-seal the inside of the tank. From what I'm told, the afteramarket tanks
just have an outlet at the bottom of the tank. Is this true?
