Kelly,
The only right angle fittings I can find in Van's catalog are
tube/pipe. Both my valve and filter have male tubing connections. I
would need a right angle with female tube connections on both ends.

It is called the F Swivel Tee. There is only one female fitting, as the
other two are intended to have female flared fittings connected to them,
like virtually all of the fuel system connections.
