Fuel tank with built in swirl pot connections

(please see below link to drawing),

Hi, am I correct in assuming that outlet No1 10mm will go to a filter then a low pressure pump and feed the swirl pot inlet No 3 10mm, and the outlet at the bottom of the swirl pot No 2 12mm feed into a filtered high pressure pump, and the return from the engine into the inlet No 4 8mm at the top of the swirl pot. No 5 being the breather for the tank. The swirl pot is built into the fuel tank.

A few points I would like clarification with are

are the above assumptions correct
can I use 12mm kunifer fuel line to the engine
use a 8mm line from the engine to the swirl pot

Thanks in advance Shindha

What you are suggest will work. Depended on engine maybe 8mm feed and 6mm return. If you're having the tank made it would be simpler to add a pot to the bottom of the tank.
