Broken Power Pole Reservoir

I currently own a 2017 Cougar AE SP.  This boat came with power pole blades mounted by the factory.  I was a package boat.  Long story short, the drivers side power pole reservoir cap and neck broke off the reservoir and of course it drained to a very low level.  I don't know how the cap broke off, I will check when I re-install the pump with a new one.  Yes you can get a kit to put on a new reservoir, but nobody in the Missouri/Arkansas area has that kit.  I checked from as far north as outside Kansas City MO to as far south as below Mountain Home.  Be prepared for the mess if you have to deal with this issue.  I also will check the front of the fuel tank to make sure that it has not been damaged since that is the only thing in the area where this pump is.  FYI, my pump has bolts via the compartment in front of it that attach to the pump.  I took a couple of longer bolts, same threads and cut off the heads to use them as dowels when I put the assembly back in place.  I will fill it with fluid prior to shoving it back in the hole since I don't have the clearance I believe to get a hose into the opening where the cap is.  It is behind the fuel tank and up against the wall and not exposed as the other side it.
