You might want to just pull the bowl. Get yourself an o ring kit, new hoses and clamps from dieselorings.com. Clean it thoroughly and check for damage to the bowl and FPR.

Also you might want to consider ordering Ford part number F6TZ-9150-BA. That is a replacement mesh screen that is internal to the FPR.

Probably about 75 bucks for all the parts I mentioned. Ford parts must have just had a price increase. Rather substantial increase in fact. You could probably do without the Ford part. The used mesh screens usually are mushroomed and are very difficult to clean effectively.

Did you say you had a fuel leak?...If so and it is leaking at the fuel pump, you may want to do it ALL at the same time.
