Hi Robert,
The leak is more likely to be a ruptured jet diaphragm.
They tend to crack after a long period on not being used.
Unfortunately you will probably have to remove the carbs to replace it ...
do both.

Bob, sealing air/heat leaks between the tunnel and body of the car does a
great deal to keep the cockpit cool.  Replace the rubber seal that runs down
both sides of the fiberglass gearbox cover on the raised flanges on the
floor and between the "bell" of the cover and the firewall.  I got under the
car after that, with the cover installed, and used a caulk wherever I could
see gaps.  I don't remember which caulk I used, but it wasn't silicone
(anticipate the future need to remove the cover again).

I applied insulation to both the underside and topside of the cover before
installing the carpet.  Insulation on the top side made my carpet fit better
over the tunnel.  I used 3M contact cement, which has held up very well for
the last 20 years.

Bob,

While you're insulating the interior, shine a drop light in the engine
compartment and look behind the dashboard.  Caulk wherever the light shines
through the firewall.  Lots of engine heat can pass directly through those
firewall grommets.
