It isn't uncommon for the rigid plastic fixed section to be cracked where the lock engages.
Of course it doesn't normally have the bolt latch, but I assume that is just to keep the flap closed.

Thank you for the reply. I assume that the lock is the tapered cylindrical hole above the flap? Do you have a picture of the key that you could post at your convenience? or is it just a regular key and I'm missing the cylinder? I've ordered the owners manual, that should shed some light on my troubles.
No hurry, the water system needs a complete overhaul so the filler door is just one more part in the project.
