The bolt on the 1985 fuel filter was removable, and it did have a hole in
it.
I'm starting to think it takes either the small or large filter, which will
both fit the threads on the bolt.

The trunk seals also function as storm drains - water is supposed to
get to them, then flow around and down. If the channel facing the
outside of the seal is clogged with dirt and leaves, you'll get water
in the trunk.
