If you make a 45 degree angle in the fuelpipe above the pump and you a small piece of rubber hose to connect it to the pump,than run the copper pipe against the floor area,drill a hole in the piece of box section it's now clamped on,run the pipe trough the box and clamp it down with D-clamp(with a rubber sleeve)it would't look much better.
Don't clamp the connector thinghy,just clamp the fuel lines about 1 inch before and after the thinghy.
Personally i am not fond on soldering fuel lines,i rather use pieces of rubber hose to connect them.
I use a Y shaped plastic connector to put 1 into 2 lines with hose clamps,with a roadside repair you can always find it easy to repair with a piece of rubber hose.Soldering at the roadside is a bit difficult sometimes.
