The pickup tube makes a couple of bends and ends about 1/8 inch above the metal in a sump area on the bottom of the tank in approx the shape & location shown. Look thru the sender opening with a small flashlight and you should see it. There is no screen but I've seen tubes that make a "U" and point down and other years where there may be a small baffle or plate to help keep floating objects away. If the gas had varnish or dried at some point, have seen that sump full of congealed material.
