Just an after thought....if tarpaper is to be used, why not use ice/snow paper instead. It is a tad thicker than 15# or 30# tarpaper and IMO the benefit would be that one side has an adhesive layer. I might add, a very good adhesive.
So if this material is stuck to the tank, maybe no moisture could get between the two surfaces like it possibly could with plain 'ol tarpaper. Smallest roll, I think you can get is 3' wide by 33' long, so a friendly roofer might be the ticket.
The purpose of the adhesive is to prevent water from getting to your roof sheathing, so same theory should work on tank.
