A friend in my Corvette club had the filler tube replaced last week, only took about 45 minutes. Even though the screen hadn't shifted, the dealership replaced the tube anyway to play it safe. It's only if the screen has fallen out into the fuel tank that it gets to be a major task. In that even the fuel tank has to be removed in order to remove the screen. My understanding is this is a rare event.
