Here’s hoping that giant bead of sealant along the tank baffle is good.  It’s the only part you can’t see after you’re done.  We also installed the baffle rivets wet and sealed the back, even though this theoretically shouldn’t be necessary.

Here you can see the final (I hope?) location of the return line, as well as plugged and pro-sealed unused fitting:

In order to fix the improper fuel return location, we decided to just leave the old fittings in place, then cap and proseal over them.  So we needed to order new AN fittings, as well as the nut retention plate from Van’s.

I managed to get distracted while drilling the holes for the nut retention plate and while trying to match drill, managed to completely miss-drill.  Probably should have just drilled the hole in one go rather than drilling it smaller and match drilling.  Fortunately, there is nothing structural about the nut retention plate, so I’m not too worried about this mistake:
