Fuel gage sending unit...
#7
nice photo, i want it
no standard parts (EFI) there, all 100% Suzuki. the odd parts are BANJO fittings. in usa it be inches, this is metric, end to end.

those are all custom high pressure rated EFI , 100pSi lines, the pump can hit 60 easy with a clogged filter. or more. some can do 75, so the lines all are rated that high.

fuel pressure side not return not vents, those are another matter

on the just get some phosphoric acid in a bottle
brush it on, and it turns the rust to phosphate oxide, (like a primer)
ever do that?
the jug is sold at home depot.

then paint it (if you desire) with fuel proof paint
duplicolor sells this
as does all hobby stores that sell fuel proof, model aircraft that uses a gas engine (nitromethane proof too boot !) ive flew them for years.

all that there, looks superfficial to me. use the phosphate, treatment.
also sold $$$ at
eastwood

some epoxy paints are resistant, not proof, most others are useless,
