Default JDM swap

first off, thank you for any help that I receive ahead of time.
I have tried to search for this on this site, youtube, google and all to no avail ....
my #1 main crankshaft bearing decided to disintegrate into graffiti on my IS300 that has 200k+ miles on it, so I was forced to replace the motor.
my problem is the old engine didn't have this fuel tube below my intake and for the life of me I cant find out where or what to hook it up to.
by change I was hoping someone here has had the same issue and can give me some guidance as to what I can do or hook it up to ..... if lucky the pic will show and the gurus here may be able to help an old man.

I think that's the fuel return hose. IS300s don't have a fuel return line, but some JDM and older VVTI 2JZ cars do. I think you need to swap over your fuel rail from your old motor to this one
