Anyone know what size/type fitting I need for the factory-style TPI fuel filter?

Geez, I just replaced mine like 2 weeks ago... Start with an open-end wrench around 5/8", maybe 11/16" - I'm pretty sure that it's right in that range...

I dunno... I just went to the auto parts store when I needed to change mine... 89' camaro RS 2.8L v6 MPFI and they gave me the right one.
oh yeah, if you are finding yourself stripping/rounded the filter nuts while taking it off... use vice grips.
