I have replaced the fuel filter recently aswell. It seems to be running fine since I replaced the SCV but I can't say for sure yet because I haven't driven much lately. I feel like what helped the most was the new SCV aswell as the fuel system cleaner. There likely is a leaky injector because there's oil/diesel on top of the engine cover which seems to be coming from the injector closest to the firewall but I'm not sure. It's not leaking enough that you could see it while it's running. I've been meaning to clean it and see where it's coming from but I haven't gotten around to it and it has been looking like that ever since I bought it.
Another thing I noticed was oil/diesel on the clamp of the pipe that's coming from turbo and going to the intercooler as well as some inside the throttle body but not much and it looks pretty clean otherwise. I think I might try the turbo cleaning stuff from the same brand (forte) of which fuel system cleaner I used aswell. That's what the guy at the parts store recomended aswell when I got the new SCV.
