Part Number - fuel reg assembly
I can't speak to exactly how they work, just that there is a diaphram and spring in the regulator that keeps the fuel line pressure equalized.
The other looks to be the electrical connection on your fuel rail that tells the injectors when to inject
The pressure regulator is on the fuel line from the 'source line' to the 'fuel rail.' It is one assembly, line and regulator. See photo link below.
Very easy to remove from the fuel rail with the right tool. 5/8" fuel line disconnect (see photo). Disconnect neg bat terminal and let sit for a day or relieve fuel pressure with the impact switch located in the trunk.

The link above shows the line and the tool. This is a photo of the old line out of the car, see the cut
Removes from fuel rail with 5/8 tool used on the fuel rail side.
The other end simply has a plastic clip you pull out, or you will squeeze to remove.
* this part is off my 2000, v6, 3.8l, purchased at dealer $75 plus overnight shipping. The part shows up as not coming with quick disconnects (dealers computer view). However rest assured, it does come fully assembled with both side connectors.
