Fuel tank sealer

Anyone got any ideas/advice on something to use to seal a fuel tank leak from the outside ?

The leak is tiny and adjacent to the seam. Unfortunately, the area will never be dry (it is right at the bottom of the tank), so not sure how to seal it off.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

All the best

i got some stuff called `dam it` from vauxhall motors once they used it if any oil barrels got a punture it says it only lasts 24 hours but if its a small hole you might br alright, pm me your address and i will send you some up in a jiffy bag.

Petro Patch has worked really well for me in the past with small leaks, I think it is made by Comma and readily available
