Default Location of parts

I’m putting an early type fuel pump system in my zt, new and old side by side in the pic, however, I’m at a bit of a loss as to where the circled bit goes, has anyone some pics or a diagram as to it’s correct location and how it fits please?

It goes over the hump in the fuel tank to the other side of th tank its a pickup to enable the fuel to draw up over the hump

I believe all the fuel pumps have them

If its not on the pump you removed you may have a pipe in the tank going to the other side.. If its disconnected it may be a problem with lack of fuel under half a tank

It has to be located extremely close to the pump due to the pipework, diesels have a longer pipe, the pumps / filter /piework removed were the later type without most of the gubbins from the early ones.

Having not been in an early tank before I have no idea as to the location of this part and I struggling to make sense in the tank as to where it goes.

Dave. Send Jules in Conwy a message and ask him. I am sure he will be able to tell you where it goes.
