I've had this, mainly on UK cars.
You need a new filler neck pipe. There are 3 screws holding it to the body and jubilee clipped at the other end (goes in to 2 pipes). Make sure you get under there asap and squirt everything that's coming off as 15 years worth of rust will will be hard to shift, especially the 3 screws at the top of the pipe! (I used an impact driver on 1 car...)

Have a look at the breaking threads in the for sale section, I'd imagine one would cost no more than £30-40 delivered
