I changed out my in-tank fuel filter a couple weeks ago, just on general principles (at 87k miles). The old one was discolored but showed no signs of clogging or any deterioration. It could be replaced by a section of fuel line if you were going to go to a filter up front. I considered this also, but keeping in mind the 60k service interval for the fuel filter I took the easy way out and just replaced the in-tank one. It's not a bad job. Remove the rear seat, pull the access panel, the whole assembly comes out through the access panel. The filter is ~$65 at the usual online Subaru OEM parts houses.
