Yes the exterior panel. Easy to pull.

If you remove the rear cover hiding the tank, it will make sense to you. It goes to a barbed fitting and down into the fuel. Just use some small zip ties on all the return line sections at you will be fine.

They look like they will work. Expensive, but should never fail. I bought a bag of 50 plastic Ts from the same place for short money. https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=104481
