Merely a dent, or is the stock tank actually leaking?

I always kept a kit of "fuel tank epoxy" in my racing pit cart if such a need would ever arise. Fast forward a few years and my dad shows up at my house with a tree branch sticking out of the gas tank in his Cadillac, slowly dripping fuel, with him asking me how to fix it. I remembered the fuel tank epoxy in the pit cart, grabbed a clean drain pan, and mixed up the epoxy before we did the switcharoo with the branch. I literally jammed the ball of epoxy in the hole, hoped for the best, and told him to find a new gas tank and we'll replace it. I think he drove it another 10 years before trading it in. The epoxy was still holding tight.
