Default Fuel Pressure - no Schrader - which/where to cut fuel line?

I need to check the fuel pressure. AEB has no Schrader valve.
Which of the 2 rubber fuel lines do I need to cut to splice a T in?

It goes in the rubber line that goes into the front of the fuel rail. Don't put a T in it tho, just a basic fuel pressure gauge.

I don't have the gauge for permanent installation here right now, but need to plug in a pressure to at least set the AFPR (with a mobile gauge) to where it needs to be.
Install T for testing, then connect line again (pipe plus hose clamp).
Should work, or?

That should work, but its not ideal really. I guess you can always just put the gauge in later. Or just order a gauge from ecs, they ship really quick.
