Pump to carb steel line did I order the wrong one?

I fitted a 350 crate engine to my c10 a year ago.It originally had a 305 everything just swapped straight over so when I ordered a new pump to carb fuel line I thought the 305 line and 350 would be the same but according to the summit racing check application it is not.It is only a big deal because it cannot be bought in Australia and I will have to order another one if it's wrong.That's the truck off the road for another 2 weeks
I can't imagine what the difference would be?
Does anyone know?

If your using the same carb it should fit just fine.

Agree. Same carb mounts i same place same distance... Weird... Also seen where other parts are "different" yet really aren't...

Thanks thought it would be ok.Pump failed in the middle of knowhere and cost me $700 to get the truck back home.When I put the engine in I knew I should replace the starter,water pump,fuel pump etc but my penny pinching ways won out as I thought I would just replace things as they failed.Could have done the lot with change for $700.
