The mechanical is completely disconnected. The outlet hose is shown open. You only need one or the other. But get the right size for the carb, if electric, otherwise you need a return line.
Best to install all new fuel lines, because sometimes they put an electric on back because the line is in bad shape and doesn't flow enough with the mechanical. Steel tubing is cheap. A good mechanical pump with a good line should work just fine.
Regular rubber fuel hose is only good for about 5 years, unless it's the modern lined silicone rubber type which this is not. There's lots of hose on this setup. Only need a short section for flex/vibration of the motor compared to the frame where the line runs.
