Could I just wire one up from something else to see? It also had an intake leak at the carb flange. I sanded the carb flange on my tablesaw top with some stick on sanding discs. Then I made a corprene gasket. Still leaked some as the manifold is pretty rough. I switched from wd 40 to find the leaks and went to aerosol contact cement which sucks into the gap and then congeals. I fixed my oliver tractor the same way with vinyl upholstery paint and it idles smoothly still. The doodlebug runs better each time I address an issue. Maybe I'll go look for a condensor. After that, it's a manifold gasket as the exhaust leaks badly at the #4 cylinder. Welded up the boom and working on lubricating and adjusting stuff.
