Never had to remove the swaybar on a non-XWD vehicle to drop the tank, so far. Once the 7mm hose clamp is slid down, the gentle pressure of a large flathead or small prybar to the end of the hose lip is usually enough to loosen up bite. Leave it halfway on the inlet pipe and it will fully remove once the tank is dropped.
For your small evap leak Ive seen two things cause this after fitment of a pump both o-ring related. First a new seal ring wasn't installed and the mating surface of the tank was quite dirty. A small fuel leak here was also evident. Second have seen the fuel tank seal roll/slide out of place before when fitting the pump lock ring.
