Hey Mike,
Cheerfully lifted from the ever useful http://www.vanagon.com/ site:

Euro-American RV Products (AKA Delta Six Enterprises)

Key blanks
If you wish to make your own water-tank key there are blanks
that will work. According to Steve Sandlin of Steve's Lock Shoppe
"The key blank is an ILCO DM31. As a substitute, you can use the
ILCO 1092 C or Y12. This is a US manufatured equivalent of the DOM
key originally used. It is an exact replacement. The ILCO 1092C
and Y12 both must be shortened to work, but could be used in a pinch."
I went to a local locksmith who
picked the lock to open it and then replaced it with a high quality German
cabinet lock that works just fine. Cost me 30 bucks and took about half an
hour. This is when I first got my Westy last year --- now I'd probably just
fill the tank through its top opening under the cabinet under the rear table
and wait 'til my new key arrived in the mail.
Cheers,
Doug
