On the outside
The only ways to get to that area are lift the cab, try to squeeze up from the bottom or go in from the engine side. Whatever way it is not an easy task. There is just the suction and return lines and the fuel tank. The suction should attach in the middle and the return should be at the engine side of the tank. If it is the tank itself the cab will need to be moved any way.

Agreed, if memory serves, the tank cracks near the welded saddles. Especially true when using solid tires as in scrap recycling. Hopefully, just needs a sender gasket or something"easy" like that.
