Quadrajet front plug leak question

[beaterku]

Good morning all,

Well in my infinite wisdom, I was tapping on the front of the carb to see if the float was stuck. I may have gotten a little over zealous and now the plug on the front of the cab adjacent to the fuel inlet fitting is leaking. Is this a part that is readily available? Any tips on fixing the leak?

Thanks everyone!!

Clean it up real nice and put a thin coat of JB Weld on it.
THey make different ones. Look for the one that works with gasoline.

Thank you for the suggestion. I am planning an LS swap this winter. I don't want to spend a bunch of money on my current set up. I will give the JB a whirl and see what happens.
