Hi Geoff,
That's the emulsion tube.
The needle jet is sat above that & is a press fit in the carb body.
When you remove the slide & look down into the carb the needle jet is the brass bit that the needle goes down through.
You tap it from the slide side & it drops out at the bottom of the carb from where you removed the emulsion tube from.
Hopefully the no. on it will be 258 O-1
Cheers,
Nick.
