There is a place to access the fuel pump cable about 2 feet to the rear
of the tank. The harness has a connector on the inside driver's side
frame rail near the spare tire. You only have to drop the spare tire to
reach it, not the tank. To avoid dropping the tank, some guys remove
the rear seat and cut an access hole in the floor directly above the
fuel pump. You can fine details on the Explorer Forum.

There have been successful ferrite filters placed on each lead leaving a
gas tank, if you can access the wiring right above the tank without
dropping the tank. If that is the suspected source of the noise, you
can test for that fact, by turning on the key, but not starting the
engine. In many vehicles this starts the fuel pump in the tank, to
pressurize the line, and the noise will appear if from that pump.
Worth a try.
