Question Series 2 Petrol tank Dilemma!! Help!

Hi folks, I need a new petrol tank for my 89 (on G) series 2 RS turbo Escort but I'm no sure which is the correct fit? Someone told me to lift the back seats and remove a rubber gromit to see but I canna get it out!!!

It's like a seive, fuel peeing out all over the shop!

HELP!

If the old tank is that bad just drop it from the car and then you can see what type yours is
