does the gas tank fill tube have a gasket to body?

took the gas fill tube out of the body today to repaint it and noticed there wasnt a gasket there between the body and filler flange.
wondered if there ever was one there?

i noticed the gas cap sits a little far away from the body and a gasket would bring it closer

thanks

No gasket from the factory. You can always try adding one

you may not want to add a gasket, you want your filler neck well grounded to the body of the van when you are fueling to disapate static electricity that builds up

just sayin that might be the reason there is no gasket from the factory

all good points thanks
got some rubber and cut a gasket, and to me it was worth it as now the gas cap looks to fit better to the body
also made sure it was still grounded

ps i made a gas cap cover out of an old econoline horn button, looks sharp to me
