fuel filter location/air bag question

Hi guys 2 quicj questions please.

firstly i've got to go and service my mates 4ltr tomorrow, he's got all the service kit and a fuel filter? i didn't think the 38's had an external/in line fuel filter fitted does anyone know please?

secondly, my 38 has been stood for over 2 years, i'm slowly working my way replacing all fluids, servicing engine and making sure the whole lot is working, while changing the spot light yesterday I noticed the o/s/f air bag perished and cracked, but its still fully functional, would you guys recommend to change them as its been stood for so long? i have a journey coming up in a few months to france so need the range to be 110% right as will have all the family with me.
I've seen a set of 4 dunlops on ebay with all new clips for £260 all in what do you think guys?

ye get your head down at keiths for a few nights whilst he sorts your eas out im sure he wouldn't mind ps gems has a filter thor doesn't.

How do I know if it's a gems or Thor?

Thor has the bananas at the top and Gems has the box!

Thor engine came in around 2000, I think.

This is on a 99 it says 4.0 on the top

It's a Gems then.

if its a gems v8 it should have a fuel filter near the fuel tank, thor v8 dont have them.
