I removed the tank and forgot where each of the two fuel lines go! Does the hose that comes from the left side of the fuel bar go to the top connector or the bottom connector?... I can figure out the other hose from there

It doesn't actually matter. In theory I suppose the 3/8 should go to the feed side but in practice the 5/16 pipe is plenty big enough to pass all the fuel you need.

The way the system works is that the fuel rail is pressurised and the pressure controlled by the pressure sensor in the tank that bleeds off surplus. The injectors don't care where the petrol has come from as long as it's at 3 bar.
