Fuel Filter in Rochester 2-BBL?

[BanjoDude]

EDIT - I've finally found a proper diagram for the carb, and it appears that there should indeed be a fuel filter installed behind the inlet nut. I see that NAPA has a metal one (3050) and a paper one (3044) listed as options. The instructions in the service manual are as follows, and now I'm confused in a different way:

○ Disconnect fuel line connection at fuel filter nut
○ Remove inlet fuel filter nut with 1" box wrench
○ Remove filter element and spring
○ Check bronze element by blowing on cone end
○ Check paper element by blowing on fuel inlet end
○ Install element spring, then element. Bronze filters must have small section of cone facing out.
○ Install new gasket on inlet fitting nut, then install nut and tighten
○ Install fuel line and tighten

So....how do I know which element to buy - the paper or the bronze one?

Hi guys,

Probably a stupid question, but I've never been afraid of those.... I see a fuel filter referenced in the service manual that should be changed annually. I can't discern from the manual if that's only in the Holley carbs or if it's in all of them. My 69 C-20 has a 307 with the Rochester 2 BBL carb. Everything is bone stock. If it has one, could anyone point me to a place to get the proper part number for it?

Thanks!
