Trash in the idle ports under the #5 core plug? #2 Lead shot missing? That carb looks a bit different than what I’m familiar with. Does the idle mixture control air instead of fuel?

I have been studying the drawing and have a question about #2, the lead shot. Does #2 go in the well below the core plug and just free float around in there? It’s kind of unclear from the drawing. I do not remember finding one in there when I took the carb apart, and I did not put one in on re assembly.
