[Tigers] Original part Question

Hi Ron, 

Picture #3 is the fitting on one end of the long line.

Due to the flexible hose on one end of the long line I think the long line went from the carb to the fuel filter which was positioned in the factory location on the front of the engine.

The line currently on the 260 is much shorter.

Here is a picture of the shorter line:
