NAILED IT! Some senders come with the gasket. Just need to punch hole in gasket based on sender screw pattern.

Any auto parts store will have a pack of several sheets of different types of gasket material in them. I can't imagine we don't all have one aboard for emergencies.
Anyway, for a plastic fuel tank sender gasket, I would use a cork one with the flexible PermaGasket, #2 I believe, on both surfaces. A good hole punch and a pair of scissors and you're done in a few minutes.
