Vacuum line hell, I swear....

Turns out the base gasket was OK, but the gasket between the carb base-plate and the carb body was the leak, but thankfully had that rebuild kit. Goes to inspection today or tomorrow. Hopin' and prayin' it makes it! Just worried about the emissions on a 23 year old car.

What was the name of the stuff that some folks added to pass emissions? I've heard of acetone as well..
