Update: It looks like I fixed it!!! I appreciate everyone's help!!!!
I cut the metal line between the pump and carb and added a nice little filter incase there's anymore debris! Cleaned the carb, flushed the line, replaced the rubber hose after filing the flared metal line and It's running like a champ again and no more fuel pouring out of the nozzle!!!! That filter will keep that from happening again incase there's a little piece of rubber lodged somewhere! Feels good to be able to drive again!
Thanks again everyone! I really appreciate your help! Hopefully I won't be back here for a while!

Just a quick little update!

Drove 50 miles round trip yesterday with no issues and I see absolutely no debris in the filter!

It looks like the arrow might be pointing in the wrong direction.

Keep an eye on that filter, sometimes the vibrations can make those fancier filters come apart.
It's surprising there wasn't one around the fuel pump to begin with.

Glad you got it sorted. A couple of things, not a fan of that filter. The clear section can break, when you go to town next, I would get one of the plastic semitransparent filters. They don’t fail and you can still see if there is fuel in them. Also, just to clarify on fuel pressure. If you increase volume through the same size orifice, pressure will always increase. In a mechanical pump there is a check valve that limits output pressure.

i too, am not a fan of those clear glass filters, as i had one fall apart on my 38 plymouth coupe with an E58 small block/727 combo.
luckily, it didn't catch fire !
if you want to see anything, as was mentioned, get one of those plastic [almost clear] filters.
