The tank is tin-lead-lined on the inside (Terne metal). If the inside is clean and shiny, outside of the bird's nest, the acid will remove the coating, and the tank will be, forevermore subject to rusting. If I couldn't do this myself, I would take it to a radiator shop, have them cut a hole in and inconspicuous place (bottom?) clean it out, and then solder a piece of copper sheet over the hole, as a patch. I have seen this done a number of times.
