You seem to be suggesting there is an external regulator as well ?
The '96 unit is unique to that year

No conflict, the manufacturers design the auxiliary tanks to re-use the OEM fuel pump assembly.

I dont know much about them, I think they have 2 lines
must mean you have an OBD1 vehicle (no OBD2 port adjacent to left knee)

Actually there's no FPR on the fuel rail (only 1 fuel inlet as well) see picture below, additionally there is an OBD port under the driver's side dash.
I checked the build sheet by VIN and it's listed as a 1996 XJ Cherokee, I do remember reading once (don't recall where) that too many Cherokee Chassis were found to have been built in late 1995 so Chrysler held them over till 1996 parked in the factory lot.

That is why I pinched off the fuel line whilst I had someone shut off the engine, theoretically the rail should hold pressure when isolated unless an injector has stuck open, my next test will be to disconnect the fuel line and pressurise the fuel rail and injector assembly.
