There should be lines running down the passenger side of the framerail and terminating before the tank. On the same side should be your gas tank with a sending unit on the top. take a hose and run it from the sending unit to the appropriate fuel line.
What you have isn't factory, it should have metal lines across the back....

My '75 had factory rubber lines still in place and in good shape when I pulled the cab off last summer.
But your right in that this setup is not factory. Rubber lines can last a while in this area, they need to be fastened and protected correctly.
I like the hard line setup better, so before I put my cab back on I put on the set from my donor.
