You might try using a 2x6 with a hole drilled in it the size of the threaded part of the sediment bowl "casting". Cut a notch in the 2by for the shutoff [turns fuel on & off] so that the casting will sit upside down - supported by the 2by. Get a washer big enough [ the size of the glass ] to fit in the "casting". If you can have the use of an arbor press, take a large socket upside down on the washer & put pressure on the assembly. Use common sense about the amount of pressure, as this is potmetal or cast zinc. You might be able to bring it back into shape enough to be able to use a new gasket & permatex #2 to seal it up. WE've straightened a couple of bent housings this way. If no press is available, a large vise might work. can't see what you're doing as well, though. Good luck with it.
