Hi Peter, we had exactly the same problem with #413 when we bought it and the problem was exactly as explained by your diesel injection man. The fuel pick up pipe has a stay welded to it and the weld had pulled away from the pipe leaving a hole. Brazed it back together and hasn't been a problem since.
What I did was loosen off the bands holding the tank and then rotate it outwards to allow removal of the pickup assembly.

Thanks Deano. Good thought. Hopefully I can do that, though it is a square tank. With a bit of luck there might be enough room.
