Use rubberized flashing. It comes in a roll about 6 inches wide. Find it at menards or home depo Cut to size. I put it on the straps as well on the top of the tank where it makes contact with the body.

Thank you to everyone who made suggestions, all good as far as I am concerned. Tried to get bitumen coated felt today as my first option. Just not a thing here in Australia, probably because we don’t have asphalt roofs. Found a dampcourse bitumen material but it was coated in fine sand. Finally got flat sheet rubber 1/8” thick to cover the whole tank for about US$20. Unless I hear any major objections, I’ll go with that.
Cheers

I used tar paper from Home Depot the last two tanks I installed.

Looking for suggestions as to what to put between the gas tank and the floor of the trunk. I saw on one generic website that original type tar paper is now replaced by a thin rubber sheet. Hopefully something I can get from a hardware store or the like. I would like to ensure there is no chance of promoting rusting of the tank or floor.
