2006 E350 w/ V10 - Options question

I just ordered a new van and am wondering if I should order the optional auxiliary fuel port or the engine block heater? Does anyone know what the auxiliary fuel port is? Also, I know an engine block heater is a good idea on the diesel engine but do I need it on a V10? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Doug

Unless you live in the far north, you won't NEED the engine block heater. Some folks like it because they claim that there is heat in the cabin sooner on cold days. Not sure what the aux fuel port is for.

I believe that the optional auxiliary fuel port is for connecting something like a generator to your van/trucks gas tank. I could be wrong but for some reason that is sticking in my head.
