Looking for tank 1981 CB650, also got few questions

Hello everyone, I am the definition of a newbie when it comes to motorcycles. Bought a 81 CB650 a little over a week ago. No knowledge of bikes but wanted to get into something new. P.O. gave me the bike, says carbs were cleaned out and put together but had his hands full on other projects and couldn't get to it. Tank is rusted and has holes so I have to buy a new one.
1. Basically i've seen that 80-82 tanks fit? If so, do I have to adjust or modify anything with a different year bike?
2. My bike did not come with an automatic fuel valve? the manual I have tells me to remove tubes (next question) from it but I dont have it. is this a problem? Can i just do a direct fuel line into tank or will that not work/
3. What size tubes do I need to put for the small holes in between carbs 1&2 and 3&4. Also see a t fitting that connects fuel line to those two lines? I know i'm probably confusing the hell out of everyone but any help is appreciated. THANKS
