carburetor problem

Hi Guys

Looking for a bit of advice.

Just stripped the carbs on my ST. Found that the overflow pipe in one of the float bowls is broken (sheared off). this would explain the apparent flooding of number 3 carb. Does anyone know if this small pipe is available as a seperate item or will I need a new float bowl complete with pipe. The second question is how is it held in place. No evidence of a screw thread, is it a tolerance fit?

Lastly, and I know its a long shot, anyone have a spare float bowl from a 28mm VM28SS carb.

Thanks Mick
