Thanks again Rusty. Went and got blue and black RTV. Ended up using the black, because the blue said to not use on applications that will come into contact with gasoline.

Confirmed all 6 screws had punched through. Used the RTV and swapped out for the stock screws. (Pic attached for reference of what someone had switched to at some point). Since the dealership just put in a new o-ring, i left it in place and switched out one a time.

Do you think I'll have to worry about this sealant corroding over time? Also, should I be concerned about the possible metal in the fuel tank?

Thanks again!
