Not Ranked
What you have there is a cell as it has the bolt on plates at the side and front. You can also see the removable lid that they use to install the bladder. Most of the problems with the cells are caused by that stinkin ethanol fuel. It degrades the foam inside, the bladder and the gaskets between the bladder and plates. Because they are minimizing the number of gaskets and plates the front one does the pick ups and is also used for the (bent and short) sender. The senders don't even start to read until the tank is less than 1/4 full. The pickups don't hold fuel there under cornering and acceleration. I put a trap around pickups to hold fuel there and I relocate the sender to read full range of fuel level. With the spark suppression I'm using inside them I have been both building them and also converting a few cells to tanks. I also make the new ally tanks from a heavier material or from stainless.
