I just don’t understand why no Low Fuel Light came on and why it wasn’t grabbing the last 10L.
If there was fuel in the right side the ECU might still consider it enough fuel not to light the low fuel indicator - I believe there are fuel sensors in both sides. If the transfer pump failed you'd be left with fuel in the right side but no actual fuel getting to the engine.

A fairly easy test would be to drive some more until almost empty and open both access hatches (under the rear seats) and visually check the fuel level in both sides. Ideally you'd want to replace the butyl caulk and cap gaskets, but in a pinch I think you should be fine carefully reusing them.
