JW/Lightwin fuel tank stone filter

[opposedtwin]

Hard to believe I’ve never encountered this before on an OMC (mercurys for sure) but I ain’t getting any fuel to my little carburetor. The fuel line petcock is fine and not obstructed.
Is it possible to soak these in clean gas and re-use them? It does look like it’s darker towards the bottom. There’s a guy on ebay selling them for $40 but I really don’t want to go that route.
What have you guys done in the past?

thanks!
