Default Fuel pump/Fuel tank question

Recently picked up another Civic locally, when I was checking everything out in the car I found out that the previous owner broke 4 out of the 6 bolts/nuts that locks down the fuel pump in the fuel tank.

My questions
1. Would it be better to replace the entire tank, since those studs come out of the tank and the fuel pump lid goes over it and bolts down via the 6 nuts?
2. Is there a way to lock it down differently, without using the 6 bolts since they are all f-ed anyways? If so then does anyone have pictures of their methods? And have you leaked gas out of your tank since doing so?

Thanks for your time.

you must repair it.because it case problems like enter Dust and impurities in the fuel tank that make Blockage in the fuel filter and then in the injectors and you will the smell of gasoline in the cars Especially when the tank is full or near to the full
the solution change the fuel tank if the 6 bolts are Actually cant repair
