The brass connector is a push fit into carb body, so you should be able to pull out or drill out the remaining bit. I'm not sure if you can buy the brass bits, i gave my spare ones away, but you can salvage them out of any other redundant LC carb bodies without too much difficulty.

Totally understand mollers.
Just depends whether you want a functional item, or one for a nut and bolt resto.
I saw a set of carbs for sale recently on eBay with one of these missing, and thought I could make one of those.
Maybe I will some day, but I've got more than enough to do!
