Run the motor on a remote fuel tank

Ahh the psaki bomb approach!

That test eliminates the motor so look for a fuel tank vent not venting, screen on pickup tube in fuel tank restricted, fuel hose liner collapsed somewhere, primer bulb issue or fuel filter issue.

You won’t smell gas if the system is drawing air into the fuel system. Where your hose is the leak is before it.

Yep, sniffed all connections between the fuel line connection on front of the motor and the clear section I put in while motor wasn’t running and smelled no fuel, but clearly there’s air entering somewhere. In theory, I could just replace everything between fuel line connection and the lift pump and it should eliminate the issue correct?

From the information you provided, yes.
