All my hoses and the vents were fine. Only the fuel pump itself with rusted out and that was where the leak(gas fumes) was. The vents look to be heat sealed so new tank is likely. The hose ends also look to be heat shrunk to the connectors.

I couldn't find a way to replace them and the dealer wanted to install a whole new tank that comes with new valves already installed. So I used some fuel-resistant sealant to seal all around my front valve. After I did this I no longer had that gas-smell when I filled up the tank. I think I posted about this a while back.

Good stuff! I'll try it out once it gets a bit warmer outside.

Cheers.
