FRP Fuel Tank Fittings?

I'm thinking about building a fiberglass fuel tank for my skiff but I am uncertain about how to incorporate/what to use for the fill neck, vent, and feed line fittings. The tank will be below deck with an access lid. As far as fuel guage sending goes, I plan on a cut out hole to mount the gage. I will be using ISO resin for the tank. Thanks in advance.

Why not use bronze or stainless for the fittings?
