In many cases, yes—if the seep originates at the filter head sealing surface. Inspect for cracks or damaged hardware and replace related seals as needed.

Quantity is one per filter head.
Does this include the fuel filter or other seals?
No. This listing is for the filter head gasket only. Add a fresh fuel filter and any crush washers/O-rings required for a complete service.
