As I believe someone else said, the conical spring was a device popular in
the early seventies to keep thieves from pushing a hose into the tank to
siphon out Gas.  It was supposed to lodge in the neck deep enough to allow
the filler hose to work, but not allow a hose to reach into the gas.
Someone must have pushed it all the way in.  Getting it out may require
reaching through the sending unit opening.
