It will look pretty well stock.now try and seal area from outside tank.

I did this modification with out leaking tank just in case !

Others here may recommend a good type of sealer.

You don't have to cut the bracket off the tank. Just remove the lower half, then install the dash hanger. People leveraging themselves in with the tank bracket in place is one of the causes of the leak. The dash hanger eliminates that stress.
