Need Diesel Fuel cap

I have a 36' CC Beneteau (1998 if that is important). Unfortunately, as I was fueling up at the end of last year, the cap found its way to Davey Jones' locker. I took a cap off one of the water fill points and used that over the winter (and stuck a tennis ball in the water fill).

However, now that the season is coming up, I need a more permanent solution. I have contacted Beneteau. Unfortunately, the only thing they can sell me is a new fuel fill that includes a cap. This would require me to take out the old fill and seat the new one. That new cap does not fit the old fill. I'd rather not mess with a new fill if I don't have to.

Any suggestions?
