No - it's not mine.

I thought the stud pattern might help but a lot seem to be five stud.

you will have to remove it and take a few pic. Wema make a good selection of replacement senders to match your gauge .

Hi guys. Mine must be all clogged up.
I went to take it out and one of the screws has been rounded off. What do you think is the best way to remove ? Standard way for removing rounded screw ?

These, or similar, are a good starting point.

They are not great with flat head screws, where cutting a new recess with a thin cutting blade or a hacksaw, or a hammer and an old fashioned impact driver are best.

Very careful use of a dremel to make a slot then use a straight blade screwdriver.
Best to use an impact driver bit as the bit is ground parallel which will help to prevent it slipping out of the slot.

pick a torx bit similar inner dia to the rounding and tap it so the stars grip into the metal surrounding ,usually works for me
