OP, I went through a similar ordeal some time ago. People will tell you all sorts of places to look on the pressure side of the lift pump. However, considering the amount of air you have, I don’t think that makes any sense. This looks suction side to me, which means before the lift pump.

Have you checked the hard fuel line that runs under the car for pin hole leaks?
What about the gasket around the tank strainer? With that much air, you have your two sections of fuel hose and the primary fiilter, the two things I mentioned and that’s about it.
