It almost certainly won't melt as it is immune to petrol, there are
filters on the fuel tap so I'll keep an eye on them.

In the meanwhile I have soldered the two holes, adding a plate didn't
seem to work so I am relying on the solder alone.

I borrowed and old copper soldering iron heated separately with a blow
torch.
