Actually, the sender, and yes it was the float. Cracked and full of gas as I'd reported earlier. I just wanted to thank everyone for the help, Scott, Elliot, and others. We all say it, but this resource is incredible.
I was going to order that brass float, but it was actually in stock right here in town from a hot rod shop. It's exactly as you guys said, though it's incredible how common that float is-- it fits 25 years of GMC trucks, 15 years of Chevy Passenger cars, 5 years of the Chevy Nova, 7 years of the Corvette, and lots of Ford cars and trucks including the Mustangs.
If I heard the shop back East correctly, their supplier showed 600 in stock.
Tomorrow I go for a long drive. I've been waiting!
