i recently picked up a 98 vfr in sad shape. the tank had bondo on the seal for the fuel pump. 

my replacement pump, and gasket came in today. i had previously used a wire wheel to remove the bondo from the underside of the tank.

when i got everything installed and tightened down, i placed the tank on the bike, and gas started to run out the bottom of the tank. on closer inspection, it looks like the leak is mostly from the bottom of the gasket, closest to the crotch end of the tank. there is a small indention in the tank right there. i'm wondering if this is a normal dent, or if i need to get a new tank, or what... i need some help.
