Is there a problem putting a small dab of epoxy on the float arm where it meets the sender unit just as a little more insurance it won't come out? Don't want to do it if it will react or soften while always being submersed in fuel. Thanks

Typically, as I recall, aircraft with "wet wings" use vinyl ester resin rather than epoxy. I don't believe epoxy can maintain its properties after long term exposure to fuel.
Instead of guessing about other adhesives, you could probably use proseal. But 1) I've not heard of one of these coming out and 2) safety wire seems more reasonable - if you need to replace the sender, you can remove and keep the old arm.
