Not a problem. That would make it a return line to the fuel tank rather than a feed line to the fuel filter. It's more complex now because there are several lines, but it is still a low pressure line filled with fuel that has leaky age cracks in the rubber.
There should also be a hard steel line to each injector. See if you can get a picture of the complete injector - best to do them all.
Also, we originally assumed that the upper right hand side in your first photo was a connection into the wall of the fuel tank, but we ought to confirm that.

Hard to tell for sure with wiring loom over fitting in the picture but it almost looks like a banjo style fitting on the engine side?
Yes - the original picture was in fact a connection into the wall of the fuel tank. In this last photo it's a bit blurry but that's the same connection point.
Yes I believe it's the same style fitting as what is up at the fuel tank as well. I couldn't get a reasonable photo today since the sun wasn't shining out here in the northeast!
