TR6 Magnetic ring in the early gas cap

OK, it fell out. Salvaged. Need to glue it back in place.
What do I use so the fuel fumes won't soften the adhesive?
Super Glue?
2 stage epoxy?
Gorilla Glue?
Silicone sealer?


HELP!!!

JB Weld seems to work well around fuel. I'm not sure how well it will stick to that magnetic ring, but that's what I would try first. Let it harden completely (24 hours @ 70F IIRC) before exposing to fumes.
