I just changed the fine mesh filter in the canister fastened to the aft starboard side of the engine. I dont' know if I would have had to bleed the line, but I bled it as a matter of course, when I started the engine. Engine ran fine with no issues. Bleeding is very easy on my m35, so I do it any time I change any of the three filters.

If you have a Racor as the primary fuel filter and a secondary on the engine, do you really need the fuel pump filter? Why not remove it?

One shouldn't rely on the filter in the pump.
