    1: Crankcase puddle drain outlet. Somebody decided to put a piece of hose (plugged??) on it. It is supposed to dribble excess gas..Yeah, I know, frowned upon nowadays.

    2: Slow speed air/fuel ratio adjustment. "Normal" carbs have a needle & knob, but who said this is normal?

    3: OK, leak fix by epoxy. Certainly not factory.

    They made tons of those 5D10 motors. Same lower unit as a TNxx Johnson. Mine would run circles around the TN that I had at the same time.
