OK....I tried to put a link on here for the online Service Manual but it will not work. I am an authorized Miller Service shop and have access but it is password protected. Sounds like you got your money's worth.....
Those carbs are very basic and usually pretty nasty after sitting for any period of time. Either a Marvel-Schebler cast iron or possibly a Zenith. They do make a universal replacement but it is a real poor setup as the linkage does not work to well with the idler.....Take the old one apart and soak it in carb cleaner for a good while and blow it out. The only gasket you need is for the top to float bowl and I try to save the old one or make one. They usually leak fuel if you don't have a shutoff on the overhead tank and shut it off after you use the machine. I worked on lots of those old tankers.......
