So i have a 84 svo mustang and im wondering what tank i should order, the in tank fuel pump or the external mechanical fuel pump tank, the current tank is the stock tank i would think.

I'm not sure exactly what you are getting at here. Are you looking to have a stock tank with the stock fuel system or are you upgrading things?
Is the car carb'd or fuel injected. does it car an electric intank, electric external or engine mounted mechanical pump?

Stock tank leaking from where? Through the metal or at the grommet?

This would suggest the car has a mechanical pump ALTHOUGH..

This would suggest you should have swapped the tank over to a fuel injected tank. As well as swapped over from a mechanical fuel pump to an in-tank electrical pump.
