Fuel tank sat 4 ten years

This TTR i got with a blown motor and no history with the bike. All i know it was sitting in a workshop for ten years after he smashed the piston. The fuel tank came with the petc--k removed. Tank has a strong wierd smell. Like oil/diesel / plastic. This oil looking stuff is leaking after tank was sitting in the sun for 3 hours  tank was covered with a towel , im thinking is the plastic melting inside the tank.  Thnx.

Remove the varnish with brake cleaner or acetone.
