Is anyone familiar with this?
 I'm attempting to install the fittings for the send and return ports and I'm finding a conical rubber stopper in the return port. Is this suppose to be there? It's inconceivable that someone reached into the tank and put it there so I'm imagining there's a reason for it's existence. Currently I can't imagine what that reason is.  Anyone?

IIRC there is a riser on the return line inside the tank. It is used to make the fuel come out higher so the pump doesn't pick up hot fuel again.
