 Got the fuel pump replaced and the anti siphon line set up.

Have rebuilt the leaking carb. Seals looked relatively new, so on the plus side PO wasn't lying about the recent rebuild. However, the float height wasn't properly set. The needle valve couldn't close.

Installed the Grose jets...I assume they only need to be installed with the red fiber washer that came with them and not an aluminium washer the standard valve uses? They didn't seem to fit right with the Al washer.

Fixed the emissions things and new proper metering needles. The air valve now works as it should.

Will be doing the other carb tomorrow...Hopefully I will be driving soon.
