I recently acquired 1994 Bayou 220 (leaks oil, leaks gas). Beginning by cleaning carb. When I took the float bowl off, the brass overflow tube is not straight (see image). I am not sure if this is "right" or was damaged/modified at some point (although I can't image why). I have looked for an image or drawing that would show this clearly with no luck. Should this tube be straight vertical; and if so, should I attempt to straighten it, replace it, or leave it be (not sure if this would effect the required float level setting as the end of the tube sits just a little lower at the angle). Prob putting too much thought into this, but any info would help!
