Hey guys, just tore off the carbs on my project motor. Was planning on taking all the jets and orifices out for a soak. Long story short I tried to remove the large brass tube in the middle of the main body, and mangled it. I thought because it was slotted at the top it should come out. Pictured here in the middle of the photo. I don't see this on any of the parts diagrams for this engine. Did I just totally hose this carb?

No the part is toast (this photo is from the other carb), I tried a screwdriver in the slots, mangled it, so I thought 'oh crap' gonna have to buy a new one, then took vice grips to it and pulled it out. So the part is garbage now. Is it possible to buy part and if so whats it called? Otherwise maybe I'm looking at a replacement carb
