Leaking Carburettor part deux

Trying to troubleshoot the leaking carb. Pumped with motivation and the fact that summer is disappearing, I had the right hand side carbs off the car in 21mins.

I cant seem to find anything obviously wrong.

















UPDATE: I found a rust flake on the inlet side of the needle valve when I removed it from the carb body. Cleaned out and back on the car the leak seems to have stopped. In the future I think I'll just shoot some carb cleaner into the petrol inlet pipe.
