I believe you should be using the after pump metal cannister filter.  Your
vehicle may have come with two on it though.  One before the pump with equal
sized hose in and out to the pump and the metal cannister one.  If you have
the plastic one in line in front of the pump and it has the same size line
in and out then it was supposed to be removed and replaced with a section of
fuel line from the tank to the pump on its first dealer warrantee visit.
The metal cannister one is used on many VW.
