If you've got it down so that only fuel is coming out, add some meths to the tank to get any moisture that might still be lurking in the system rather than draining it.
That drain just inside the fuel flap can be easily cleaned using either a length of thick strimmer line or a long cable tie just narrow enough to fit inside it. I keep one in mine with the end folded over so it sits with a kink in it so it doesn't fall all the way down the drain.
Usually it only blocks towards the top so as long as you clear that, you should be ok.
Might pay to get a replacement fuel cap with a better seal on it as well.
