Have you checked the fuel pressure ?

You can disconnect the fuel line and run it into a bucket and have someone crank the engine. You should get a strong jet of fuel.

If not, the fuel pickup in the tank could be blocked (a collapsed sock on the fuel pickup). Or the fuel pump could be bad, etc.

Only one of the several mini paper filter elements (fit in front nut of 71 2GV Rochester carb) I've seen has a check valve inside of it.
