theres a few websites that have part lists, google marine engine dot com. The tapping idea i just thought of but tappings done many times, there will be videos out there on how to do it. Its pretty easy you just pick up a tap set for a few dollars from a auto shop and a outlet t from a hardware or engineering shop. Just be sure to do it with the carb apart so nothing sucks into engine

Just in case anyone is interested.....I had a carburetor from a 1975 model. I took out the fuel inlet from it, drilled the good one and pressed the fitting into. Seems to be working fine. I will report back if I ever get to the water with it.
