62 LANCER GAS LEAK

Even the 63-6 A's leaked when you fill them , you have to turn the pump handle over to fill them today without getting a back up. Whats the angle of the filler pipe in the trunk? Ever notice the paint on many of them under the filler is bad?
Here's a pic. I did notice the paint under the cap. Looks like there may have been a little fire in the trunk.
