AEC Sparky is this by chance a Racetrac service station? I have done the exact thing you are talking about on literally hundreds of gasoline dispensers. I have never used an explosion proof box. I have always used bell boxes and in certain instances where there were clearance issues have used handy boxes. The fittings that come out of the top of the dispenser are usually explosion proof back to back close 90's that make a swing joint. These fittings are potted from the factory to prevent fumes from escaping from the dispenser. The kicker about this installation is the top of the dispenser is out of the class 1 div 1 and div 2 areas. See figure 514.3 in the code book.
