-8 AN Supply and Return line w/ stock tank.

I've dropped my tank and stock fuel lines out of the car this past weekend. I have a walbro 255 intank pump right now already in the tank. I am going to be running -8 AN line from my regulator to the tank for both my supply and return lines. I have a couple questions.

Does anyone have a picture on where you welded a fitting at the top of the tank for their return? Also, I know i should be using a steel fitting for the top of the tank. What's the fitting i should be looking for? Is it ok for the fuel to just dump in from the top of the tank on the return like this? I am not going to sump my tank. (I will run dual walbro pumps eventually)

Next thing, for the supply line I was thinking of leaving the factory 3/8" line coming off the stock pick-up / sending unit about 4". Then from there getting a fitting to go from the stock 3/8" line to an AN fitting. From the AN fitting I would put an addaptor then a -8 fitting on the other end to the fuel filter. This is the best way I can come up with doing this with the intank pump. What fitting would I need for the factory supply line to convert it over to AN?

Thanks in advance.
