If you just want to see fuel coming out then disconnect the supply line (one with valve on it ) ) to rail

Also the larger diameter fuel line are almost always the supply line(pressure line).This is true with any car except if the car has a returnless fuel system(only supply line,no return).

Only on '85-'88, the later cars had the same size lines on both sides.
