Default Fuel Filter for 2000 SL2???

Hi all,
Please help me find an appropriate fuel filter. I can't seem to find an OEM number for it, and I'm afraid to screw things up by putting in an unreputable one.
Thanks for your help

There are still some out there but Napa doesn’t show one by application. But one of the numbers on Rock Auto crosses to a Napa Gold 3100. Their application listing shows a 2000-2003 S10. Probably the correct filter. Baldwin/Hastings is a GF380.

Yikes these things are getting scarce. Stay away from the $15 fuel filters. You tend to get what you pay for. Please also be advised that the aftermarket filters seem not to come with the all important retaining clips that must be firmly seated when installing the filter to keep all of the lines firmly attached. The OEM part used to come with pre-cut hoses and connectors on it but apparently those days are gone. You will probably need to use a fuel clip retainer removal tool to avoid breaking the existing clips.. l too would go with the Hastings

Thank you! The Rock Auto Baldwin/Hastings GF380 is the one. It arrived in the mail and I installed with no problem. It even came with the all-important plastic retaining clips.
