Subject:Vanagon Gas Tank/Fuel System measurements

So I have this '85 bus which has been plagued with gas tank problems.
I have a brand new tank from Ken Willford at Vanagain that's going in today.
It has an 11mm outlet, which i believe is the same size as the stock one
(But can't get under the bus at this time to check).
As I recall, the inlet to the fuel pump is also 11mm. Right? Then the outlet
to the fuel pump is smaller..... 7mm?

I know the current system I have is very gerry-rigged with it's fuel filter
and I plan to do it right this time. So..... the large metal filters which
normally go after the fuel pump, are 7mm on both sides? Or do I have this
mistaken?

I planned not to use the plastic prefilter if I can avoid it, but if i need
to pick one up as an adaptor i need to know ASAP.
