Here is a better copy of the table I provided before.
I hope it is easier to read. It shows the buoyancy characteristics for many steel and aluminum tanks.
For the steel 72 (71 in the table) empty = 3.5, full = -2.0.
I don't know if that includes a valve.
I am sorry that the labels on top do not line up with the columns.
