Some very small leaks are hard to find, especially if the leak is a "seeper' and doesn't appear while the engine is running, but shows up on the manifold after the motor have cooled down.

Spray the area with carb or choke cleaner after the motor has cooled and is off, wipe up any tracies of gas residue and then start the motor and look for the source. It's most likely a gasket or something on the carb. Take your time, once you find it...fix it.

Good Luck ,Bill
