On all the polly tanks i see they have 3 ports . 1fill , 1vent and one goes to outboard engine yet the allumonum tanks that i'm looking at all have 4. if that makes it any clearer.

Dual engines? If it is near the rear of the tank I would think two pick-up tubes for multi-engine use. Are all four plumbed with hoses?

Does the Pursuit allow for dual engines?...all the fuel to your motor SHOULD go to the separator first...could it be that second line is stubbed off out of sight...tug on it a little and see if you get any resistance or if it comes to you easily...due to hose rot over time, you should know where it goes...is there a shut-off on either or both of those lines?...just for safety, if there is, close it prior to tuggin' on that line...even if there is no shut-off, it shouldn't lose much w/out the motor pullin' on it...
