Default 42 fountain 1 gas tank or 2 ? I need help

question for anyone who has a 42 fountain (or anyone who knows the answer) my 42 fountain as a fuel feed on both sides of the boat , are they going to 2 separate tanks or did they just put a feed on both sides going to one tank to make it more convenient to fill up from either side ? thanks in advance
