Here is some information from the US Coast Guard on both Electrical and Fuel systems that will help you understand why many of the "Marine" items in the engine compartment are marine and not automotive.
It not only gives you the rules, but an explanation of what the rule is and why.
They are in .pdf format.

Fuel - http://www.uscgboating.org/assets/pdf/downloads/FUELSYSTEM.pdf
