Jim,
No apologies needed for pointing out the obvious. It wouldn't be the
first time I had a concept problem with this car... Unfortunately, it
wasn't just the metal neck. But I can see that the foam still looks in
good shape.
Thanks for the info!

Which part came out, Gene? The metal neck that goes into the fuel
cell, or the rubber neck that the metal neck goes into? The metal
neck just slides into the rubber neck and then is clamped with a hose
clamp. I may be stating something obvious, but I figure...
Fuelsafe made the fuel cells. Real cost is closer to $1000 (sorry...)
There has been some discussion of repair, but a 1990 cell has done
it's duty. You have to take the seat out and the metal surrounding
the cell off. We have found that using a shop vac to collapse the
fuel cell seems to simplify the process greatly. If you have to take
it out, bring a beer. You will bleed. You will curse.
