Default Fuel line question

I have a 69 BB 3x2 and need to replace the rubber line between the frame and fuel pump. The one currently on the car is definitely not correct so I don't have any idea what it is supposed to look like and I cannot find a listing that covers a 69, they all seem to start at 1970. What changed between 1969 and 1970 and can anyone tell me what I need for my car.

Thanks

Jay

Welcome to the Forum.

You might call DocRebuild, I think the set you need is #3164427, which is 1963-1969 Fuel Hose Set - connects the frame fuel line with the fuel tank sender and the fuel pump - with big block - should be around $12.

Just a guess - the earlier and big block cars did not have a fuel RETURN line.
