you could remove it and when you install use some yamabond or hondabond smeared in the hole before you slide it in. or if you are up to it just some superglue medium thick and some baking soda dusted over and hit it with quick set only on the outside seam there. should soak in enough to seal and hold and baking soda will keep it from going crazy when you hit it with the instaset.

Never seen that spot leak enough to cause a problem. Is this a new issue, or have you always had it with this motor? Can you put a finger over the end of the draw bar on each side and effect the issue you are having? Those carbs are notorious for lean idle. Setting the mixture disc can be a pain.

Got it used but have very little time on it. I have a thick o ring on the carb so I ordered the correct one to try and silicone the draw bar a bit. Mixture disc seals are new

A little dab of ultra gray RTV then you can remove the RTV without a big mess with a wire brush .

Rotation possition of the mixture disc is critical. You want it as rich as possible at idle without restricting high speed opening. which way the barrel rotates to close matters as well. If you pull the carb and look at the spray bar from the motor side, you will see what I mean.
