YW.
Gather the needed stuff, including a NEW tank gasket, and a few spare 10mm bolts, a bottle of the proper dimension, also get some fuel injection hose and a double barbed fitting the same size to repair any fuel line damage on top of the sender assy, new hose clamops, safety wire and go for it. Should take about 2 hrs WITH problems.
The fuel lines on the sender nipples will be hell to get off. Cut them off using the minimal amount of waste hose. Pull the slack to re-install the remaining hose on the nipple when done. IF you should cut too much, thats where you install the double barb fitting and add as much fuel line as needed. Just be certain its fuel inj hose.
If done properly you can corner with a tablespoon of fuel and not loose power.
Have fun !
