Hey, welcome to the forums. I'm in greely, maybe I'll see ya around. Might help to post a pic but if I'm reading correctly, your talking about the nipple from the oil cooler line to the solenoid. Is that definitely where the fuel is spraying out? That nipple shouldn't be all the way through into the float bowl. It's a sealed system for the oil heated carbs, separate from the fuel. If it's definitely spraying out around the epoxy job then you may have a crack in the float bowl cover. Let me know, I have an almost complete set of dismantled carbs. If I'm way off then def post a pic of where the fuel is leaking from.
