78 SC: Fuel pressure accumulator connections

[Url]

After a complete rebuild, I am not sure about the correct connections of a 1978 SC fuel pressure accumulator. I have a 3 port accumulator (brand new) but I am in doubt how the top 2 ports should be connected.

Following image on pelican shows the center port connected to the fuel filter and the outside port to the fuel pump:


However, the Bentleys manual says the opposite...

Can someone please confirm the correct connections?

URL,

The second picture shows the connections for the FA (3-port). The main delivery fuel line is connected to the FA's top (outer), the top (center) goes to bottom of fuel filter, and bottom port (FA) goes to the main return fuel line either at the back of the FD (fuel distributor) or at the tee fitting depending on the car's model year.

The picture below has the two-port FA instead of the three-port for SC's to simplify the connections.
