Those things aren't really a filter. At best they filter out only large
particles. You still need an inline filter somewhere between the tank and the
fuel pump to properly filter the fuel.

had to blow through the fuel line back into the tank, the new additives in the
fuel caused some tank metal to reduce flow. I found when I pulled the tank that
the fuel filter

in tank was gone. I have a new tank that should be here today and new filters.

I pulled the fuel line off the carb and ran a line from the fuel pump
to a jar and started the bus and there is a nice stream of gas coming out of
the fuel pump which makes me think that it's ok, might be a little low (2.5
psi) but I was looking to see if it;s was trickling out of the pump..(looking
to see if it was clogged up)
Now I'm wondering what to do next.......

2.5 psi should be enough if there is enough volume.You just need enough
fuel to keep the float bowl full while driving.

I checked my fuel pressure and it read 2.5 psi.... it did not move at all
when I revved the engine....this is on a 1600DP stock engine....
It's lower than the Bentley specs which are between 3.0 and 5.0 psi....
Suggestions?
BTW, this is the original fuel pump in my 71 Westy. I did pop the top off
about a month and cleaned the screen in it.
