Q. We are sending material discovered located in our diesel tank for testing. believe an employee put a product in the tank

Before you get too deep, carefully and fully explore what opinions your expert is willing to stand behind. It may be easy to find the foreign material but impossible to demonstrate the source. Don't waste your time if you cannot do the second.
