Fuel line differences ?

Need to replace leaky fuel lines (rubbing against tranny over 6 years ) — using ‘94 lines to the 5.8 in my ‘52. Junkyard only had a ‘93, but in addition to slightly different material it is missing what looks to be a regulator inline in the ‘94 (blue hose, top)?



So do I need to track down a ‘94 (or ‘95 since that was the donor)?
TIA

Can't recall if there has ever been a definitive ID posted of that device, but I believe that it is a pressure "damper" to reduce pressure fluctuations.

But for some reason it's on some, but not others.

I'd use what you have & if the later style shows up, grab em'.
