Scott, JD Parts doesn't show it on the 317, but the same tank is used on the 312-314. On that parts list is AM102924 (sub for M81645) plain cap. My son put one on his 314 several years ago and that's what reminded me where to look.
I suspect the 312 model came with the cap with no gage, but either can be used.
