HF o-rings may not be the exact fit. If you do not have a new fuel filter/ o-rings, I would suggest just taking out the o-rings and inspect under a magnifier glass for damage. If they are smooth with no nicks, put them in boiling water for 5 minutes to un-crush and re-use. Also clean the o-ring seats and lube with diesel first. Maybe whoever installed that fuel filter did not do a good enough job keeping things clean and that's why it's leaking?
