It's a bit of a pain, but my writeup is listed in the link right above this. The fuel filter and replacement O-ring (for the fuel tank opening) are only available via a Nissan dealer. Shipped from DAVEB at South Point Nissan it cost ~$26 total.
Just be very diligent and careful when doing it and you should be OK. Don't force anything, the plastic can be brittle. (then again I was doing that shyt in 27F weather )
