As others have noted, that is the fuel shutoff. When they go bad, the available replacements are rumored to be absolute junk. There is a fix on the Ford board for how to make the old one work (mine wouldn't shut off, not the problem you're having).
You're not there yet, but your friend will be if he uses that shutoff very often. Once I got mine working (surgery on pot-metal parts--yuck) I ran copper line down from that shutoff and put my own shutoff in line. I use that one day-to-day and only close the one you are showing when I need to take the tank off.
