Hi Robin, filters look OK on both pipes, but a hole in one of them is a possibility.
One thing seen on this carb is a hole fron the top to the base flange that goes onto the tank. This is blocked from the top with a brass pin that is a push fit at the yop, but has a good 1mm clearance on the tank flange end, no sign of internal drillings into this hole though./
