Glad the tank interior looks good, it's a rear issue to fix them. As to the short piece of hose on the filler neck, this tells you it's been apart before because the original was a flexible brass bellows soldered to the tank neck and then to the filler pipe in the tail light housing.

My drain plug was also frozen, while I had the tank down I drilled it out and replaced the original (galvanized?) one with brass.

Don't forget to safety-wire the three bolts on the saddles that hold the tank up!
