Yea, doesn't tie up with any 325 I've seen, and no idea what 11 is.
Point is, ETK is for identifying part numbers only. The diagrams are not exploded diagrams like you would find in a manual, and quite often parts look a lot different than they really are.
There probably is a 325 fuel rail like this on some version somewhere, and this same diagram is used for all varients.
