Maybe you can raise the tank slightly, enough to get a layer of plastic between the tank and the batteries.
The auranthetics came with those plastic moulded covers to avoid any impromptu welding. And not to be a nanny, but the vehicle code here states that all wires and battery terminals must be insulated and protected from accidental contact (paraphrase) which is a darn good idea when you think about it. (after an accident)
BTW. I just had a big smoke show with my van voltage gauge (I was going to put in a fuse later, honest!) so I know where you are coming from.
All in all better than a gas fire though.
