LS1 Swap Corvette Fuel Filter Install.

Ok so i bought a vette fuel filter and the fittings from a guide i found on here but the problem im running into is this. on the one side of the fuel filter there is 1 fitting and on the other side there are 2 fittings where am i getting the 2nd line from and where is that 2nd fitting / line supposed to go. i cant find any threads on a full install for this filter nor can i find any good pics that will answer my question.

Almost forgot this is for a 1990 v6 swapped camaro with the 3rd gen tank in it still.

If any one can answer this and or show me some pics for this as well i would greatly appreciate it.

The end with the two fittings has the supply and return on it, and the other end has the outlet to the engine.

The supply from the tank is the outer fitting. Connect the return in the middle to the 5/16" return line.

It appears that is one thing I didn't take a picture of. (I was in a pretty big toot to get the install done 4 years ago...)
