You have to break the lock unless... you should know the position of the "locking" allen bolt from your existing gas cap. You could drill the cap at that position with a 3/8'' bit and get it out that way. Otherwise, take a big screwdriver, bang it into the lock and use vise grips to turn it. The locks on gas caps aren't that tough, it should be easy...
