Post pulling the tank and redoing the two lines, one was kinked by the PO and loose, I now see how difficult it is to NOT kink it. Had tightened the clamps and immediately upon getting it in realized that would not flow. Should the loop go into that larger hole or will what I have here be okay? I have 2' of both hoses.

Gates Barricade hose is stiff which is good & bad. The good; It's a little more difficult to crimp and is alcohol fuel friendly. The bad is that you need to check those hose clamps ~yearly. The hose itself tends to compress under the load of a clamp and then loses its grip. This may only be a problem on my end as I run about 10psi higher than the Type 4's.
