To my knowledge all fuel line o-rings are the same size.

Shut-off Valve seal

Is the top of the IP where the delivery valves attach free of fuel? Those valves have o-rings too.

I've had difficulty getting the pre-filter o-ring to seal after repalcing it. You might check it again. What about the o-rings on the bolt that the main filter spins onto?

I suspect that as time goes by, your bubbles will begin to cause harder starts and eventually a leak will develop somewhere. You could try parking nose downhill to see if you could get fuel to leak so you could track it.
