It turns out that the keys worked on the ignition and the seat but not the tank. I got the tank off but now I need to decide what to do with the rust. I will end up tanking the entire tank to the locksmith and have them cut the key so it works for the tank along with the ignition and seat.

The gas cap has been replaced , thats why it doesn't match. The lock smith may, be able to re key the cap to match, otherwise you will need to carry 2 different keys, or buy a set of seat , ignition and gas cap on eBay. Been there done that.
