Didn't get a chance today, hopefully will tomorrow.

Do remember noticing a little bit of rust round the actual rim where the fuel goes in, only looked like surface rust though. Don't know if that is indicative of anything.

I don't recall any pipe inside the filler cap though - what exactly am I looking for?

I'll take the tank up and check everything is on tight, and do a visual inspection.
