If that white piece you have is just a plastic tube then the "strainer" is missing.
The strainer is the white part you see in the two pictures I posted.

As mentioned, the strainer envelopes the tube. The tube is the "main" tank, the petrol tap has another hole in it at "ground level" to let the remaining fuel out.
