The fuel "source" does enter the top of the pre-filter.

I think you should pull the little fuel line from pre-filter to thermostat and check those orings next. Maybe lube wiht sili grease.

Again, your leak should preceed the pre-filter.

If the fuel lines are yellowed they are old and should ALL be replaced. The entire set is something like $50 at dealer prices.
