I believe the PO of my 914 reversed the supply and return on the fuel lines when he swapped in SS lines. From reading other posts and diagrams the larger should be the supply I think. Believe this is backwards?
Zip tie is me trying to figure out what’s happening and get a decent photo and failing.

What's with the plastic T?


If you're talking about the "Y" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) , that's the return splitter that sends fuel back to the pump and tank - everything attached to it should be the smaller hose/pipe.. which from these pics looks like it's mistakenly going back to the larger tunnel pipe. So that would be incorrectly routed if I'm not mistaken.

To original poster: I think the holes/grommets at that rear firewall are sized specifically for the large vs small tunnel pipes. I also believe the pipes are mixed up, iirc.
