Is that frame rust ?
That fuel line is not shaped the same as the ones In my two cars. Both of mine hug the frame rail on the three sides.

undercoating/overspray is what you see. Thats the original line. Maybe BB line is different. My line does hug the frame rail on the outside.

Maybe that is a shadow from the flash of the camera?
The retaining strap may attach in a different spot than where it sits right now. Is that line from another car? It does not look new.
I reuse stuff from other cars so I've had to make accommodations with straps and clips.

I had a bright led light under the car when I took the picture. That is a glob of undercoating not a hole in my frame rail.

How dare you not call out me, the real expert!

That clip bolts to the shock mount, just to the right of the right side shock absorber. You can just see the self tapping bolt head in this photo.

I installed new fuel lines in my '70 Charger this spring and I remember that particular clip being a bit of a pain to get reinstalled. Unless you're laying on your back in just the right position, forward of the rear shocks, it's hard to see the hole it bolts into.
