Lots of metal lines going to and from it.

Here's one installed on a '99.
Its the brass thingy right on top of the fuel filter cannister top.
It doesn't close itself off, but if you do spring a leak at the guage, you can close off flow manually.
It also serves as a snubber.
You close it completely, then open it just enough that the guage registers.
Here's one installed on a 2001.5 (same setup you'd use)
It goes on the bottom of the fuel filter.

The above pic of the '01.5 is on my truck before I put the FASSII on. It's essentially still the same setup, but no more bajo bolts. The line going to the gauge screws into a 90* fitting that has a tapped hole in it.
I used 1/4" ID 300psi rated hydraulic hose from NAPA (overkill) for the gauge hose, and got all the hardware from there too. btw, I think I used 7' of hose.
