It looks like someone has taken the copper line.
You could need two regulators if the distance is very far from the tank to the second regulator. This is a two stage regulator regulator setup. The regulator at the tank just drops the pressure a little and then the second regulator at the home drops the pressure down to what your appliances need. The two regulators allow you to use a smaller line to supply the house.
You can have a single two stage regulator setup. The regulator you have pictured could be either. You need to know what type it is.
The valve you show in your picture does not look like any common valve I have seen around here. The ones around here all use a flare fitting to connect the line to the valve.
If you are not 100% sure call out someone that is. It is dangerous to hook a high pressure line to a single stage regulator at the house.
Here is a link to a good site that walks you through the different setups. You should be able to figure out what you need to do from this site.
