crossing international borders in heli

here is something that i will need to know by this weekend, if anyone has any insight i'd be most grateful.
i am departing from calgary, AB and headed to alaska. the trip will obviously include many stops for fuel which are all easily within range of the a/c (350) except for the last leg which is from Northway (a mandatory customs stop) to anchorage. there is no fuel in between and i was planning on carrying a drum of extra fuel in the machine, however, i do not know how US customs will react to this.
i will of course, try to give them a call and see but i'm sure you all know what it is like getting a straight answer out of a beuracracy (sp?).
thanks in advance.
