Seeping fuel tank at the column mount

[marc silva]

I have a problem.

My steering column clamp that is riveted to the gas tank has started to seep fuel. Any opinions,ideas or methods on how to fix it? I don't really want to weld it to the tank and I don't want to use any gas tank seal in case that fails and I do have to weld it to the tank.I have a few ideas but I need some experienced
opinions.

Thanks for the advice, Marc
