 the aluminum tank was probably made by Antonio, who used to advertise on ebay:
Antonio: (619)802-4795(played pro soccer in Mexico)
Paypal account: FCOAntonioMorales@yahoo.com $400+ shipping
As for the 3 tubes from the top:
1) the one from the pressure valve on the top center goes to the charcoal canister; when the tank gets "warm" and the pressure increases, the vapor goes to the charcoal which is then "sucked" into the 2 carbs(Top, in center; small brass tubes)
2) one line goes to the breather for the differential(usually in the top driver's side)
3) the last goes to the anti-siphon valve(MUST be as high up as possible
When the fuel pump is running, the 3-4 lbs of pressure pushed a small ball back against a very light spring, thus preventing the fuel from going back into the tank.
When the pump is off, the spring pushes the ball back allowing air to enter, thus negating the siphoning effect
