Might improve the situation and perhaps simplify with these few ideas.

1- Connect the electric pump after the filter, that way fuel to it is filtered.

2- Skip the check valve and instead connect the electric pump in parallel with the original fuel pump. The original fuel pump has two check valves already. With the pumps in parallel you don't need to add another check valve (in your drawing) that is also a further restriction in the suction line for the primary pump.
