Head is head as the actress said to the bishop - shape does not matter as Hendrik said.

The shape of the tank does not change the head. it is only dependent on the height above the outlet. (not even friction when static)

Static head = height of liquid (above reference point) = 13,482 mm.

There is nothing to calculate when the data are already given.
