Welcome to the forum.
What MH do you have? What year?
Yes most are set to shut off the Generator when the tank gets to ? or so.
Could be the pickup tube for the Generator moved downward.
Also sometimes the gauge will read low if the engine hasn't been run lately.

I'm not sure I'd let it run empty. Not the same as running a gas engine empty, a diesel is a lot of work to get going again after it goes empty.

With an 18 YO fuel gauge, I would suspect the gauge! I had a truck with a gas gauge that was accurate between full and ? tank. Gauge never dropped below ? tank. 15 YO.
As Old Crow said, do not let it run dry! Fill it now, and you will know how much really remained.
With my truck, every gas stop was for a fill up. Reset the trip odometer. Buy gas at 200 miles, or run out around 250. (small tank)

A large portion of Safari Serengettis of that era had propane generators..........Just thinking.
