Default Cracked Fuel bucket top

I was looking at the fuel tank I'll be using for my motor swap and found a small crack on the top of the fuel bucket. I'm not sure how serious of a crack this is or how to go about fixing it. If anyone with a little more knowledge on this could give me some ideas I'd appreciate it. Thanks

Problem is that it is cracked above the support rod in the bottom.

This is usually due to the car being in an accident.
If you look closely you will likely see the rods are bent below & often the plastic is also broken where the rods are attached underneath.

I would pass on this one...

Not the response I was hoping for but everything you said was exactly right. I wish I noticed this sooner, I think the plug was covering it a little. Anyway I'll get looking for another assembly, thanks for your help!
