Default Anyone have pictures showing the fuel return line and the fuel feed?

As the title says...I just want to make sure that my car has the lines going to the right places.

hmm i c...try to find it if you can...The car runs fine but I am trying to determine what could be wrong with my car...I feel a loss of power and at first I thought I had bad compression numbers but I was doing it wrong. I have around 190psi across all 4 cylinders. I want to double check the fuel lines and then start looking for vacuum leaks. Car feels weird.

The one that bends towards the alternator is the feed line, the other is the return.

So basically The one on the left goes to the FPR? and the one on the right goes to the nipple on the right END of the fuel rail? If so then I currently have it that way.
