Atwood 96160 6 Gal Gas/Electric Water Heater Tank Replacement?

Does anyone know of a source for a replacement tank (tank only) for an Atwood 96160 water heater? My unit works correctly, but has a leak from the tank. I thought initially that it was a simple leak at the fitting. However, the tank itself has failed at the upper fitting.

Any help would be appreciated.

https://highskyrvparts.com/service-p...dels/gc6aa-10e Item 14 shows o-rings and gaskets at connections. What do you see? https://www.boatandrvaccessories.com...xoCbwwQAvD_BwE maybe? looks like 1/2 the price of a replacement unit
