I did this a few months ago to replace a rotted and cracked filler hose. I took measurements of the old setup so once I reassembled it, all would be in the right spot. I attached the new hose and the filler neck to the tank, tightened all the clamps, installed the grommet in the body, then worked it back in place as I reinstalled the tank. I used a bit of soapy water to help the filler neck through the grommet.

And, as a bit of "know better next time I need to do this", removing the tank will be a lot easier with the tank empty. I wrestled it out almost full and had to pour the gas out of it after I removed it. Sometimes, you gotta learn the hard way.
