Can anyone tell me the brass screw that’s missing

I have a 74 Beetle that I bought. Aftermarket carburetor. A brass screw fell out and I am trying to replace it. Can’t find it online. Any help would be great.

You might try a VW forum. We're all about 82-92 Camaros and Firebirds round here.

If it was just a plug, drill and tap and install new plug. No need to be brass. A 10-32 screw (if big enough) will work also, just use some good thread sealant.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the help. I bought this thing and whomever did the rebuild before me must have been a mechanical engineer from the Macgyver era.
