Not one of them doesn't drip while the valve is open. They all drip from the same place, the needle valve that you open and shut, not the fuel line or the bowl gasket. I've also tried putting just an inline clear filter on my Super C, and it kept starving for fuel.
Try filter part number 21111, it is for gravity feed fuel systems, and is clear also. If you take the old one off and lay it aside, when it drys out you can just shake the dirt out of it and use it over, if that is a concern for you.
I gave up on my bowl last year after trying them for two years because the openings in it were too small and caused my puller to starve for fuel. I never had water appear in it either, guess that 10% water absorber really works in that regard!
I think I will add Dean's idea of a dirt leg to my system as well.
