Found fuel/evap leak, do I need a new tank?

So I swapped the Bosch seal that came with the Bosch pump, and installed the AC Delco seal.

The seal seems to not allow any soap bubbles to form, but around the locking tabs is where I have leaks.

Where the grey plastic meets the tabs is where I have a fair amount of bubbles with just 1-2 psi of air.

Can this mount be replaced or do I need a tank?

If there is such a thing....could I use a fuel safe RTV?

Those tabs are in the tank itself. You could try bending them down so they grip the locking ring tighter. Other than that, I would recommend replacing the tank.
