Wait for Steve Smolinske's solution on Peregrine. Don't remember quite good what he did, but as all of his projects, he did a good job by moving the tank vent to higher ground.

The vent should never be below the deck fill entrance- the vent could be at least same level, but not below, as this is a chance for a diesel spill.  In the past I've relied upon my fuel gage, which  has failed.  Does anybody have any relocation suggestions?
