Happened to me the same way on the -4.  I was able to seal it by carefully cleaning around the sender bulkhead and applying  Proseal externally around the edges without removing the tank.   That cork gasket is a bad idea.  Used Proseal on the -8 with no problems.

After having fuel in it since November of 2007 my right tank decided to start leaking for no good reason today. Leaking from the fuel level sender gasket. Cant even remember what I used to seal it with, but next time it gets Pro Seal.
