I can see my build sheet peeking down like that too. I'm way too lazy to pull the tank and get it though

As soon as I touched it , it would crumble . Oh well , bigger fish to fry . Found out last night while I was under there every piece of rubber , grommet , bushing , etc is shot & needs replaced .
