Fuel filter housing replacement

Hi all.

I need to replace the housing as it fractured around the bolt holes,seems to a be common problem. I plan to use a replacement made by GORE http://goreproducts.com/products/td5-fuel-filter-housing .

Am i correct in that all i have to do is transfer the connections from the old to the new, or is it advisable to replace the air bleed/non return valves, L/R or after market, any to avoid . Any trick to remove the hoses from the fittings.

Hi All.

Replaced the filter housing today, with the GORE housing. and new internals. On removal of the hose connections the housing just fell off, as well as the corrosion around the bolt holes the ally was eaten away behind the copper washers.
