This is one of two mounts that hold the pins for the float. Can some one recommend a product that will hold this in place that's gas tolerant..other than finding a welder

"Is J-B Weld resistant to water and/or gasoline?
When fully cured, J-B Weld is completely resistant to water, gasoline, and about every other petroleum product or automotive chemical. For wet-surface or submerged water or gasoline repairs, try our SteelStik or WaterWeld."
I've used JB Weld on carb bodies but not inside the float bowl.

If you patch it and it fails you can bet it will fail at the most inconvenient time and place. Ed
