Yes you're right, I have bought it from them, having delivered to a friend in UK who'll pop into a small envelope and post it to me here.
Lovely it's from an MG RV8, we've got a strong small of petrol vapour around the filler neck, no rust so guessing there's a split and/or perished grommet.

To put the new surround on you'll need to remove the filler pipe which will give you an opportunity to have a closer look. If not the filler pipe then either the cap or breather would be my guess as vapours do carry. You say no rust on the filler pipe but look at the side of it where the breather connects. While it's off I would clean and paint it
cap fits nice and snugly/tight you do get the feeling the vapours are coming from somewhere around the neck but we will check everything.
