Looking at the installed tank with the seat removed -- There is a vertical indentation "groove" about 3" - 4" to the left of the sending unit opening. This groove extends top to bottom. This is the channel for the delivery and return lines.. These two lines pass through the same hole in the floor directly below the groove.. The hole is approximately 1" in diameter and the lines are protected by a snug fitting rubber grommet. The vapor line drops down out of the B pillar and travels down the edge and around the corner of the tank. Clips hold it attached to the lip of the tank. It passes through the floor in a different hole about 1" in front of the other hole.. A grommet also protects this line.. FYI, I used rubber plugs and drilled holes for the lines.

I think these lines are available pre-formed, I don't know for sure.. I have tools for forming/bending and flaring tubing so I rolled my own.
