Default I need help looking for locking hood latches for a heavy dutytilt front truck

I am doing some repair work for a tree service company and they want
me to fabricate some kind of lock for the hoods and fuel tanks on
their bucket trucks. One of which is a Ford L8000 (Ithink). I do
not want to reinvent the wheel, someone has to make this stuff
already.

Fuel tank looks to be a 2" pipe thread with a simple aluminum cap.

Hoods are tilt front style. with the rubber strap hold downs.

Google searches do dot give me what I'm looking for, maybe I got the
wrong search words???

Thanks

I've seen a lot of locking caps for those tanks. Most look like a
standard cap with a key slot.

On the hood they use conventional style hood pins with holes for padlocks.
