Blow through each one and find the one that most closely works the same as the original tank, and seal off the others

Hi, so I've been away a bit, and playing in the garage a lot.

I've been working on a vibration issue, something I posted a little while back (I'll follow up if this pans out).  Someone had suggest a fuel/fuel filter issue, which seemed to have some merit - there's rust in the tank (someone sadly had probably not stored properly), and what came out of the fuel filter wasn't pretty.

So as I was contemplating treating the tank (which has a few scratches, soft dents, and the aforementioned rust), I came across a brand new one, factory sealing, box, but with a dent, maybe a dealer take-off of some kind.  Knowing someone that could fix the dent (he did so perfectly), I bought it.  And I am thinking all kinds of awesome thoughts.

So I'm swapping everything out today and noticed something.  The NEW tank has TWO vent/evap lines at the back, the OLD one has ONE, and another line that strangely went to the cap on the sending unit.  I placed the sending unit cap on the old one for a visual.

Now I wish it was as simple as just placing both lines at the rear of the new tank (they are different diameters, the sending unit cap line being larger), but I don't think I could be that lucky.  Or if I am, please tell me so.  Do I cap one off?  I was in the shop manual, it shows two lines at the rear, but not what I have.  Strange.

I was grateful for all the advice on the previous post, and would welcome any here.  I'd love to get this back together again soon.

Thanks so much (in advance).
