Clogged fule line?

Ok when I go to start my truck I hear the fuel pump kick on and about 2 or 3 seconds after the glow plug light turns off I hear a whooshing noise coming from HFCM area. Kind of like liquid rushing through a valve opening. My truck takes a while to start if I try right after glow plugs are done but if I wait for the noise it starts up easier. I have only had this truck couple weeks and have replaced batteries and replaced the fuel filters after noticing the noise. Still doing it after filter replace. Am I looking at a clogged line or am I needing to test my fuel pump out?

Also another thing is today it had finally rained and after getting to work I went back outside and tried to start my truck up but it would not turn over. After several hours it would turn over and start up. Possible problem with the starter and water?

The whooshing sound is normal.
