Welcome to FTE!

I suggest posting your question in the 1980 - 1986 Bullnose forum; it gets much more traffic than the Bronco forum:

1980 - 1986 Bullnose F100, F150 & Larger F-Series Trucks - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

That looks to be the fuel inlet.

Holley 34R10918AQ: Model 4160 Carburetors Primary Bowl w/Front Inlet | JEGS

There are a multitude of different fittings for that inlet opening that will depend entirely upon your application and how you want to hook up your fuel line.

That should connect directly to the fuel pump, which if I remember right (I don't have a V8) is located on the driver's side, up front.

Kinda like this:



Then, run a fuel line from the fuel pump to the carburetor.



Doesn't need to be that fancy, just some regular fuel line should work.
