Fuel filter on Chevy Blazer

I have a 1993 s-10 4 door blazer with the same type filter. Mine was to the point where the bolts wouldn't turn to remove it also.I went to the auto parts store and bought a filter that has the nipple on both ends for a hose to slide on.I used a metal line cutter and cut off both ends of the old filters line, used rubber fuel line hose and clamps and installed the new filter. This way in the future all I have to do is loosen the clamps to change the filter. Hope this helps.
