You mean the brass drain plug/screw at the bottom of the float bowl?

There should be a rubber O ring to seal it.

no its the brass plug on the side of the bowl, looks like a brass BB on the left side looking at the air intake.

I ended up getting a two part epoxy for plastic from napa to seal those up. Tried nail polish first, it didn't work. The two part plastic epoxy sealed them up good.
