In any case, I replaced the tank over the weekend because there was no doubt that the top of it was cracking, and had pin-hole leaks. There is a reddish-yellow area that you can see in the attached photo of the tank, and that is where the cracking is, and where there were very tiny pin-hole leaks.

You can also see the type of clamps that were on, and replaced on, the hoses in the photo. There have been absolutely no leaks from the hoses, or anywhere since the tank was replaced on Saturday, so I guess the clamps were reusable. PS: you can't see the big hose under the rear of the tank, but it has a bigger version of the same clamps you can see in the photo.
