Leaking around the hinge is a common problem. Raising the tank using the hinge causes stress on this area. The plate fixing the hinge to the tank can be welded up.
The crap inside the tank sounds like a leak sealer. There have been issues were the ethanol can attack the leak sealer. Best option is to remove the sealer. Determine that the leak is only round the hinge, then repair.
