The one with the quick connect fitting is the feed line. The other large one is the return. And the small one is the vent.

from left to right, unidentified petcock, fuel return, fuel feed, and unidentified. both petcocks on the left side of this image leak fuel, as well the feed line pumps what does the one on the right do, and what are the 2 unidentified?
its a California tank.
The four connections are: fuel feed, fuel return, fuel filler drain ,and California vent.
After all, he is from California.

OK HERE ARE SOME MORE PICS OF MY POOR BIKE, Its crazy tank and the vin # im still trying to figure them out, now the last time it was running someone else got it started and i wasnt here, it was pretty much put back together anyways the hot lead on the fuel pump went so i took it apart again, and sent the plastics of to paint and the shop doing the rest of the clean up is wanting me to bring it over, but i cannot figure this fuel flow out correctly, and its driving me nutz
here it is in all its glory,what is it?

The TLS tank is laid out slightly different than the TLR, but the connections function the same. I don't have a California TLS tank in front of me to compare.
The "California" tanks have a closed circuit vent system - different than the other 49 states, and different from the rest of the world AFAIK.
It appears that you have the fuel feed and fuel return lines figured out.
The two outermost lines are the Cali vent and the fuel filler recess drain. It is easy to identify the drain - blow air down through it and note which tube it comes out of.
This is a TLR California tank.... the S should be similar.
Of course the R has both FEED and RETURN lines on the pump plate. The S has only the feed line on the plate.

Since you likely will not use the California vent, cap that tube and install a vented fuel cap.
