When you install new tank, DON'T foam it in! That's probably why current tank is leaking. Moesly and Potter never foamed in their tanks because the foam holds water against the tank. Bare aluminum forms a protective oxide layer that makes it pretty corrosion resistant provided it's not wet all the time. (But I'd coat the new tank with coal tar epoxy anyway!)
