F-14 fuel system

Can someone identify the components and the fuel flow on a F-14. Just got one and I have the fuel tank,fuel pump and carb and nothing in between. I noticed a tapping in the gas tank upper rear and a rectangular opening in the hood. Thanks

You have a kerosene F14.The hood opening is for a small starting tank.There is a valve on the starting tank as well. The line going back to the tank from the carb is a vent, so to speak, for fuel to go back into the tank when the carb is full. Once its started on the samll tank and wrmed up, you switch to the big tank which was for kerosene.
