I am using a fuel cell rather than the standard fuel tank.

I now need to run some piping from the inlet in the top of the cell to the the hole in the body where the old tank was filled from. This is all fine but I've no idea how to finish it off with a filler cap.

There are loads of 'universal' filler caps but they are all to fit on flat panels it seems, any thoughts?

maybe chop the top of a old fuel tank off, and attach some how. So that you could use a aston flip top cap or similar like a normal mini does?
