Is it pointless to have a fuel filter on the vacuum hose?

I have one on both the PRI and Vacuum fuel hose. should I just have the one on PRI?

It would be pointless to have a filter on the vacuum line. You need to have a filter on the fuel line (you call it the prime line) going from your petcock to your carburetors. You do NOT need a filter on the vacuum line going from the carbs to the petcock.
