If it was the tank that was cracked, would the boot carpet be wet? Mines dry, it was just around the lid that seemed wet.

That's the cap number. I didn't recognise it doing anything, it literally started to leak when I reversed into a car park space.
You have an old cap. Replace with one ending in .04.

Yes, if tank is bad it will leak into the trunk. Since yours in in the fill/drain area it is most likely the old cap or could be the release valve. I'd replace the cap.
