Yes, tube in the middle is uniflow, other top one is vent and the one in the V is to the engine.

If in doubt just start filling tank and watch which one start over flowing first.   But, as stated the middle one is usually the uni-flow.   Can't say that when I rework one myself.   DOC Holliday

I have one of those uniflow tanks with all tubes forward in my Vector 40. According to the Brodak catalogue, which is how I found out, the tube in the middle is the filler/vent tube... the tube on the inside is the Overflow (which gets blocked off during flight)  I think I posed a pic of it here somewhere previously but here it is again.
