Just wanted to let you know I received and installed the the metal fittings on my tanks. Correction its not 3 per pack, its one set per pack for $25.
They are super nice. Very large = requires a 1" DIA hole in the tank for the metallic sleeve, to be hysoled permanently in place. They come with three nipples, two are straight and other one is a 90 deg elbow. The fitting requires two nipples, one facing into the tank for the fuel pick up line, and one facing outside for the fuel "supply" line.....you can either use the 90 deg or the straight nipple for this, then the remaining one is used for tank venting.
I think its a good solution for tanks wiith oversized rubber stops like yours. I'm only using it on my "main" tank.
