You might be able to find a generic tank and tap a new hole into it (or with
a correctly formed outlet already there). Is the tank some weird and
wonderful shape, or would any old unit do?

The tank is a rather specific shape. It has to fit inside the outboard
motor's upper alloy casing, and the cap has to coincide with a hole in
the alloy casing.

But thank you for the suggestion.

Realistically, I'm just looking for the best way to use the current
tank. Surely some kind of goo or adhesive will form a leakproof joint
between the stripped petcock and the stripped hole in the tank...
