A 1953 tank originally had the tube connected to the bottom of the tank. In '54 they changed to a tube through the sending unit. The replacement sending units are this type. If yours comes out the top you have a replacement sending unit.

I have never bought replacement lines so I don't know where they were made to hook up.
