Looking at the diagrams, it shows two fuel tanks were used on the model, one for electric start models other for pull rope start.
Looking at the way it mounts, i wonder if you could mount a model 12 tank.... Here's what they look like, compared to yours..

FWIW I can not even find a used one of those tanks so now when they come in leaking I plastic weld them.
About a 60% success rate
I would have considered it a design fault except these tanks are now very old so possibly at or past their design life.

I not surprised that the plastic fuel tank 490622 or 190623 are not available. That engine is 31 yrs old.

There was a design flaw on the half tank and they were recalled and replaced. I have found the full tank Available online #490623. Half tank is mounted differently.
