Kenneth,
I was hoping someone who owned one of these carbs would jump in...I'm no expert on 2bbls.
But, if I were to guess, I'd say that the bowl vent. Does that hose run over to the charcoal canister?
Is yours broken? I can't imagine you'll find just that part...you'll probably have to buy another carburetor for parts.
Let me poke around and see if I can find anything more.

Well, nothing in the '72 engine service supplement, or the emissions training supplement. But here it is in the good old factory service manual for that year, in the fuel section. It is indeed a bowl vent.  It's a little hard for me to make out from this photo, even blown up (I can email the image to you if you'd like to be able to enlarge it on your pc for easier viewing). But it looks like the accelerator pump linkage also works the plunger for the vent? That's how the Holley model 1920 1bbl. on my '70 Duster's slant six works. |

Its the red thing inside the circle where the hose are mounted on - mine are broke and can fix it, the carburator works fine - but because where the hose are mounted are broke - its sprays fuel

Yes the hose run over to the charcoal canister - and mine are broken  If I dont find the spare - will it be diffecult to go for a 4 barrel and drop the canister system, I have a idea that getting rid of the canister system isnt something you just do |

I think the canister also has a line coming from the fuel tank? If so, you might want to keep the system, so that the tank is properly vented. Just cap off the line to the bowl vent if you can't fix it.
Sadly, we just had Michigans largest all Mopar swap meet a few weeks ago, or I'd have kept an eye open for you. But, there are more swap meets to come during the summer. If I see an old BBD cheap, that has the vent intact, I'll pick it up for you if you'd like. Sounds like you need a more immediate repair than that, though.
