I've never used POR 15, so I hope it's not thick enough to plug up
the very small passage in that tank that you need for things to work
correctly. If they're now plugged, you'll run out of gas once you get
down to about 1/2 tank.
Note that new tanks are bare inside and don't need anything there to
keep them from rusting, as long as you keep the water out. The broken
overflow hose is the culprit. Once it cracks, wheelspray throws water
in there and rust in the gas tank will soon be the least of your
problems.
I make and sell kits to repair that broken overflow hose. If you
haven't fixed yours some other way, you'll need one of them.

Yes, the silicone brake fluid is great stuff if properly used.
