Regarding the non-return valve in the fuel filter housing, some TD5s seem to come without one and have no problems. As long as you have the bleed air valve in the right place you should be OK. Sorry to hear about the FPR gasket; there do seem to be many types.
 
When running it self-bleeds, but the easiest way to do it is to turn the ignition to position II (power, but engine off), pump the accelerator about 5 times until the MIL (engine check light) flashes. This starts an auto bleed sequence that lasts about 5 minutes. If these is a lot of air, you might need to run it a couple of times.
 
If that fails, this is the Purge procedure in RAVE
Purge
1. Turn the ignition switch off and wait 15
seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to position II and wait 3
minutes (this ensures that the fuel system
purges all the air from the fuel rail within the
cylinder head).
3. Fully depress the throttle pedal.
4. Keeping the throttle pedal fully depressed,
crank the engine.
5. As soon as engine speed exceeds 600 rev/min,
release the throttle pedal and the ignition
switch.The engine must not be cranked
continuously for more than 30 seconds at
any one time.
6. If the engine fails to start, repeat the above
procedure.
