    Buc;  your rebuilt carburetors look so freaking squeaky clean…..better than new.  So;  in light of that….it would be hard to imagine there being some other vent that is plugged up in there.  Not after you’ve cleaned it….NOPE! 

    All that said;  I have encountered other (OMC) carbs that leak out the throat and other places because of a plugged bowl vent.
