Now, what do these do? Part of the "a self-sealing fuel tank"?

My bet is fire suppression system based on the color, the tubing, and the canister type. However, I'm not used to seeing them mounted upside down like that.
Self-sealing fuel tanks don't usually use pressurized injection. They simply have layers of material around the container that swells when exposed to fuel. There is a bladder inside that prevents contact under normal conditions. When punctured, the fuel wets the material, which swells the material and seals the leak.
