Hey George, thanks for reaching out!
I'm attaching a photo from the instructions of the Westin E-Series Round Nerf Bars # 23-1950 mounting hardware for you to check out. I don't know exactly where the DEF tank is on your 2013 Silverado or how it's sitting, but you should be able to use the photos to check against what you find on your vehicle.
Let me know what you find either way!
