I've usually see it done on the seam of the airtank then gooped back together.

First Im going to try without cutting it but I may have to, Im going to the hardware store soon for glue
If you cut the stem about a 1/16 above the tank you should have access to the O-Ring.
Bonus: Improved airflow

If you're not having a problem getting the rubber gasket (rubber washer?) back on, just take off the gasket, put some goop on the rod and force the gasket back on. For me, it was very tricky getting the gasket back on, but it was possible. Then put a dallop more adhesive on top, but make sure it doesn't run down the sides. To ensure that you don't glue shut the valve, you need to find a way to hold it open. I just tied some dental floss to the firing pin and pulled the floss through a gap in a shelf and tied the floss off down below. You could do this inside the shell of the AT2K. Basically you just need to be creative enough to find a way to keep the valve open for however long it takes for the goop to dry. Just don't get over anxious and try to use the tank again before the goop has reached full strength (up to 72 hours for plumbers goop).
I hope that gave you some ideas.
