I'm in Spain (in the rain!!) and tomorrow (Saturday) I'm going to change my KAD43 engine fuel filters. In my collection of Volvo equivalent filters I've noticed that my Mann filter (WK842) has just one seal and my Halfords (HFF205) filter has two. One large in the position you would expect and one small (about 10mm ID, about 14mm OD) which would go over the centre threaded input pipe (if you get what I mean!)
Does a genuine Volvo fuel filter have this 'extra' small seal?

Have a new genuine volvo filter here in my hand and that only has one seal, the older type used to have two seals before volvo changed it.
 
That's 7 minutes for a first class answer....thanks!

No problem, I just spent 4 hours driving back from a day in Lymington and swiched the pc on to see what I had missed and as luck would have it yours was first question I read, sounds like weather is better hear than in Spain today.
