A good and I do not mean a cheap hard ware store common run of the mill Easy out will most likely do it. Or if you remove the tank and flip it up side down and use a drill bit that might push it into the tank then you could shack it till if fell out of the gas cap hole. Or if you have one one of those hole reamers would also probably work

I would use a good easy out to. If you drill it out be careful not to get any sparks or hot enough to set off the fumes in tank.

Whatever you do, don't break off the easy-out! They are really hard and they don't drill.
I think you may be just saying that the nut that holds the bowl on came off the stud. If that is so, then take a screw driver and just spread the strap away from the bowl up top. do not pry against the glass! you only need to move about a 1/4 in. and the strap pulls out of the slots and the bowl comes off.

Remove the gas tank drill out proper size hole and an ez-out will remove the busted part. The material is pot metal of sorts and will be easy to drill a hole.

I would be very hesitant to use a drill on a gas tank.
