Heat the tap up after stripping it down, the brass will pull out, make or buy pipe of correct size, warm up tap freeze pipe and push pipe in
Re: Fuel Tap Black 73 Brass Fitting
I have successfully soldered carb overflow tubes in the past, cleanliness is the key and a pen torch, see no reason why should not work there.

Re: Fuel Tap Black 73 Brass Fitting
I had the same issue.
I fixed it by pushing another piece of brass pipe over the damaged one.

Hi Guys
Thanks for getting back to me, I will try the ideas you have and see how I get on.
I am not great at soldering, do you know where I might get a same size length of brass pipe.
