Fuel Tank connections

Hopefully I got the picture attached/uploaded that is the basis of my question.

This picture shows my Dip-04 diesel fuel tank, road-side view. I'd like to extend my GenSet pick-up tube ..... because I'm tired of how the pick-up draws only down to 1/4 tank. (Yes, I know why it is designed this way.)

So before I crawl under my rig to trace these fuel lines, can any of you tell me which connection it is? TIA.

How about you pinch one line at a time while generator is running and wait for it to shutdown. You can use hose pinch pliers.

Another thought is to check the fuel line that goes to the front of the coach (assuming that is where the generator is).

Keep in mind, if you go deeper in the tank, you will likely bring in dirty fuel up and hence change the fuel filter more often. I hate changing the generator fuel filter.
