Its above the inlet for the filler pipe on the tank, and it pipes through a hole in the chasis into the wheel arch where it goes up to a bit on the filler neck.

No worries mate. When ya refitting the tank, put this pipe on the tank first, the feed it through the hole as its a bitch to get to once tanks in place. Easy enough to sort filler neck end once tanks in place then just whip wheel off and you'll see it
