I believe that your Custom has the 4-barrel (or it should have it) but best to pull off the air cleaner and actually check that it hasn't been changed out to something else.

My 1956 Clipper also had the steel line cut (at the pump in this case) so I worked with Classic Tube to come up with a template to re-make it (using my original upper portion paired with their 2-barrel pump end) but it's not in their far-outdated online catalog so you'll have to ask. The new ones made from this template fit perfectly. If you're not in a rush, I have a spare in steel at my shop.

As for the tanks, new ones are still available as are stainless senders, both of which will make life much easier. However, I don't know how many tanks are left and I rather doubt that there will be more made once gone.

On the photos, this site's programming should have converted them automatically. If it didn't, merganser they were converted incorrectly and the site could not detect the format. Best t upload directly from your mobile device.
