It don't look like you took anything apart that could give you major leak issue but i haven't ever looked at your bay hard enough to remember. Just be careful and recheck everything thoroughly.
We will see.

Yea that's what my friend said who had a VW. He said if it was a coil pack it would be bad all the time.

He also said he had a similar issue with his GTI, he replaced the fuel filter and then the fuel pump and it was fine. Since I was sliding around with so little fuel, it's possible that something just got kicked up, and I have a habit of running my car to E

Good news is if it shouldn't be expensive to replace any of the possible items. We are going to hook up a fuel pressure gauge or OBD2 scanner that gives live-view and try to see if fuel pressure is dropping.
