I jb welded all the way around the neck on my zl/r that had the same problem. It worked pretty good. I'm not sure if you can plastic weld that plastic either.
Loctite 3035. To my knowledge, the only thing that will actualy "bond".

I had an 01 that had about 3 cracks. One at the neck and a couple on the corners. Sanded them down and cleaned them out as good as possible. Then used a plastic welder and never had a problem. Its like using a soldering iron with plastic.

fix tank spout
I tried several things on my king Cat and believe it or not final thing that worked was super glue. Try it it's cheap. Good luck hope works out.

I know it's more then a five dollar fix but i seen 3 good used tanks on ebay for around $40 i think it would be worth the money. To know it's not going to start leaking in the mnts. Hope this helps

soldering iron.
soldering iron with wide plat blade, just melt the crack or hole and flatten it out with a screw driver?

Happened to me or I should say I did not realize until we unloaded. I used super glue. Problem is that gas will eat away at it. I then used the gas tank two part putty which also failed. I ended up re-placing with used tank. I think the tape idea would have worked. The crack was almost around the entire neck. I figured worst case would be have it break off while riding.
