Ok, got the gas tank out last night.
Going to run 2 new steel lines. My plan was to use 3/8 for both lines and place a small low pressure pump under the tank to feed the 60psi pump back near the LS motor. Is it safe to run all low pressure fuel hoses and connections to and from the tank? I was planning on using 6AN connections for the high pressure line from the big pump to the motor? thoughts and suggestions are greatly appreciated. thank you Attached thumbnail(s)

Consider using pre-bent stainless lines (made by a nearby vendor) in the tunnel. Use Gates Barricade (or similar) high pressure hose, even in the low pressure parts of the system.
