Default Fuel Line Confusion 1998 Blazer

My fuel lines got bent up during an engine swap on my 1998 S10 Blazer , does anyone know if it should be right or left side for the Supply.
I am making the assumption the larger tube is for the Supply and the Smaller is Return, So if I were looking at it from this view would the supply be on the left or right(the bigger one)?
Thanks for any help.

It looks like the bigger line goes on the distributor side. Checked both blazer and sonoma...

Closest to the firewall is the \"smaller" one, connected to outer side. Bigger is closer to engine and goes to distributor side

Default thanks so much

thanks, I was scared there this morning.
But I think you are absolutely right, I think that is the only way they can go on,
because that little black plastic valve thing is on the left side looking at it and thats to bleed the supply Im pretty sure, so fingers crossed I should be good.

Anyone reading this, BEWARE during an engine swap on this truck make sure the fuel lines are in the center when you drop the engine in.
I had them deep down on the divers side and they virtually cant clear the engine to be brought to center.

It's not to bleed, as much as it is to check the fuel pressure coming from the pump lol...
