carb cleaner will also soften and stretch the O rings. leave it a
day or so, the gas might reform the o rings

That fuel tube should have an o-ring to seal it in each carburetor.
Carb cleaner and scrubbing/moving the carburetors may have cracked
these o-rings, allowing fuel to leak.

Hi everyone, I just took my carbs out and while leaving them
together sprayed them down with carb cleaner, dried them and
reinstalled them.
However after reinstalling I turned the fuel back on and fuel
leaked out of between the two carbs. While the fuel was on I looked
and the fuel was coming from two little spigots (?) on the inside
of both carbs. The spigots are about ¼” long and maybe 1/8” in
diameter. I don’t know what I did wrong, is something stuck?
