Looks like he tried to coat the inside of his tank and forgot on purpose to take out the stock vacsucker petcock.

Then he intends to prove PT Barnum's Axiom "A sucker is born every minute" by selling the thing WITH a true descriptive picture of its real condition.

It really amazes me what people will try and sell on eBay.

....What are you doing shopping for a Vacuum Petcock on eBay?

Hi Serow, I was thinking the same thing, but, he does have it listed for parts. Parts for what I don't know??

Hi Dave, Definitely not shopping for a stock petcock! I like to look at the used parts on ebay. From time to time there are still some real good deals to be had.

I think oldfeller is spot on, looks like tank sealant

I have seen something similar when a tank has been sugared.

Now I've heard of sugar in the tank, but I always thought that was just a myth??

I'm in agreement, I think it's a tank sealant that has covered the prefilter on the petcock.
