I'm using a stock feed and using the evap as a return. That's the only picture that will help you. You're going to be better off with an inline filter using -an fittings.
Convert the stock sending unit with 3/8" to -8 or -6, run hose to filter, then to your fuel rails. Same with return.
I'd try to find a part out car and get the fuel lines from that. Running new hoses with all an fittings is going to be expensive! I wouldn't do it unless you're planning to go bigger later on.

The 4th one is still an evap or vent I think. If you pull the sending unit it ends at the top with a little metal tab to prevent fuel from splashing up. I forget whether or not it went to the evap canister or not.

OP yours may not have 4 connections depending on the year, my car is a 01 and i only have 3 connections on the sending unit. I think that is one of the differences of having a plastic tank vs the metal tank though.
I used quick connect adapters from aeromotive i believe, I actually have one of them left as i bought 2 that were the same size on accident. As for the fuel filter it may be cheaper to get an aftermarket one and the correct size AN fitting for it. Those Quick connect fittings or atleast the ones I used were pretty pricey if i remember correctly

not mine, but this is what the plastic tank sending units look like from the top, the evap line is the one in the center, cant remember which is the feed and return though. Ill see if i cant snap a pic of mine, i have one on my phone but i didnt push the carpet back very far so its a bit obscured, ill take a pic of the spare connector i have as well. Its a pretty easy install especially if you are doing aftermarket fuel rains as well, the hardest part is dropping the tank (unless you cut an access panel) but i think you will have to drop the tank a bit to route the lines. Its a pretty easy install overall but i deleted my evap system so your MMV.

yeah either get the quick connect adapters for the stock filter style or choose an aftermarket filter that has AN fittings on it. I would look into both and see which one comes out cheaper in total, the AN quick connect adapters were kinda pricey atleast the ones i used were. Granted I did mine 7 years ago or so you may be able to find some less expensive options.

Hmm havnt seen those before, does the C clip section thread into the section that slips over the quickconnect end?
Thats much cheaper than what i did i looked them up and they were 35 bucks a piece.

This is the 99 up fuel pump module.
Left is fuel return.
Center is Evap.
Right is fuel pump.
