Gas tank float

Gas tank float
My fuel gauge hasn't worked since I started bring my truck back from the dead. It worked 5 years ago. Anyway, today I pulled the float mechanism from the fuel tank and to my surprise there was nothing to float. Just the mechanism with a heavy wire arm hanging down into the tank with nothing on the end to float. My question is, what is the floating device and can I buy it all by itself or do I have to get the entire mechanism?

Gasoline and silicone?
Make a gasket, cork is cheap... this thing lives inside the cab with you... fumes are no good.
