I usually solder tanks up. Much less heat than brazing (which does work well) so might be easier for some.
Clean the tank out with degreaser then soapy water, blow it out till there's no trace of petrol in it.
Clean the paint off around the entire area to be fixed plus a bit, heat up with a small blowtorch or a really good powerful soldering iron, use baker's fluid or similar steel flux and tin it up with ordinary solder. Works a treat.
