That is almost exactly the same as the X3 setup. Mine was a 7/10 PITA to change but you could definitely do worse.
Random and stocker, how do you propose to cut-n-shut these fuel lines/mount the fuel filter? I wouldn't trust my own handiwork to withstand 90 odd psi of pressure.

90PSI is easy. 9000 is harder but doable. It just depends what you're used to. I'd probably get some Swagelok compression fittings and adapters and just make it happen out of the 'random adapter fittings' pile at my work.
