there is only one on a cummins driver side behind intake horn. 12v's have a spin on and can be hard to change sometimes should change it every 10,000 miles

Actually, that is not correct.

There are 3 filters on a 12V Cummins - 1 on the pickup in the tank, the prefilter which is on the bottom of the fuel heater, and the main filter (might be a spin on - im not familiar with a 94)
