That one picture looks like someone has already tryed J B Weld or similar on the back of that tank! That mess should
Be all cleaned up if your going to resolder your tanks.???
Again that was a try at a quick fix without pulling the tank?
Sure hope this whole airplane isnt the same as the fuel system? My header tank is mounted vertically. And I am not certain some of the other ser number 12,s ever had them mounted horizontally or not. Previous 12 I owned had a 4 way Cub Selector with forward added pickup outlets with no header tank. The one I have now is completely original with left tank original, right tank is
WagAero.
JB Weld and Duct Tape. Fixes anything!

Your antenna is in the skylight?!
Sorry. Just the detail that caught my eye.

Ah. Makes more sense now.
Except for the skylight plastic, lol.

Just me making my usual rant about the proper ground plane under n antenna. And I'm further north than you are so I understand the la of sun.

61 degrees north.
I use those old school antennas a lot in fabric aircraft.

Sorry, it is Alaska. Should show under my screen avatar.
There are places that give instructions on remote flying but it's going to be pretty basic. The best way to get serious training is to hook up with a local pilot that will give you one on one instruction. The most important part is making sound judgements about what you should or shouldn't do not so much as how to fly the airplane. The most hardcore pilots here limit what they show newer pilots. They don't want them trying something dangerous before they've developed enough experience.

That picture of the inboard end of the left tank looks as though there is only one fuel outlet at the aft lower corner. The other outlet is on the top forward which leads me to believe that it is a vent to the header tank. If you can shut off the fuel from the left tank you should get no cross drainage from the right tank through the open line.
