swarf to be found through fuel uplift highly unlikely, fuels pumped on through filters on bowser either moniters which are like giant tampons trap fod and swell and block at the 1st sign of water, or coallescers then the final defence are cone end filters in the actual coupling which as it says is a cone of very fine mesh, which should be checked monthly, if its a decent oil company.....
