The tube that goes into the back of carb. Bolts to the block and runs down to front of engine. How is it secured into the carb thanks in advance. I can send pictures later

I don't think the crankcase ventilation tube is secured to the carb. It just fits into the holes in the block and the carb, and is held in place by the one clamp and bolt.
