There's a vent hose in there that if you remove it, you won't be able to properly fill the tank again until it is replaced. You may be able to disconnect the line from the fuel filter, put the line into a fuel can, and cycle the key a few times so the fuel pump pushes the gas into the can. You'll probably get a quart from every cycle of the key.
