Yup, I took a couple of pictures. Now that I look at them, they are not as interesting as the actual experience. In any case, I reassembled the boat and what I did to (hopefully) solve the problem is I simply screwed one of the deck screws into the hole. It seated nicely and did not leak at all. Hopefully it will stay that way.
Also, the deck plate sits very close on top of the gas tank and I didn't want it to press against the screw, so before I put the deck plate back down, I drilled out the hole from the bottom with a a 1/2 drill bit. It is hollow so that was no problem and the plate is not pressing on the screw.
We'll see how it goes...
