As a past auto tech I always have been nervous about rubber fuel lines to the carb from the F/P. From your pictures it looks like you still have the Rochester carburetor, if you do I would recommend to find a used factory bent fuel line so you can have steel from the pump to the carb.
I know of a few instances where the rubber fuel lines have leaked and caused a lot of damage to vehicles. I know many will disagree with me but I always lean towards the side of safety.
If you have a non-OE carb you are left with little choice but to run rubber fuel lines. I would recommend at least you replace it yearly and do not use screw hose clamps. They can loose tension over time. The circular spring clamps never loose tension. Hope this helps.
