Not a hope of gluing it, or of hot welding it.

Your best option is a screwed, flanged connector with a large flange on
each side and a wipe of petrol-proof elastic sealing compound on either
side (Oyltite is probably the best).

Or else replace it with a new tank, from a different engine if needs be.
