Default Fuel Lines, Which is feed, Which is return

Couldnt get an answer earlier. Trying to ease my mind. Installed miniram want to make sure I connected feed and return correctly. One line from tank has that block with disc thing on it and the other doesnt. Which line is the feed and which one is the return.

I don't think they are interchangeable. The feed should be larger than the return, at least, thats how my '85 is.

The line connnected to the fuel pressure regulator ( disk thingy) is the return line.

Best regards,
