Boss’ car, what was OEM carb?

Yep 273 ^

Looks like a newer Edelbrock by the 2 low speed mixture screws.

Possibly someone tore the the upper bowl gasket (that's leaking) when they were jetting down the 1406 to run with the smaller displacement 273.

Not many places for them to leak other than the fuel inlet?

Not sure where it’s coming from exactly, but it did seem like the throttle shafts were dirtier (wetter?) than most other spots.

Hopefully I can gently convince him that a Holley carb isn’t OEM.
