AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) waste oil outlet line. The illustration GS-0175 likely depicts a typical oil/water separator system found on many marine vessels. The line labeled "G" would be the waste oil outlet line, which carries the concentrated oil from the separator to a waste oil storage tank or overboard discharge. The other answer choices are incorrect because: B) is the line for the processed (cleaned) water exiting the separator, C) is the clean water inlet line feeding the separator, and D) is the oily bilge water inlet line entering the separator.
