Finally figured out the fuel leak. The seat for the fuel line flare on the brass inlet fitting (see image) has a pretty good groove on it so the fuel line flare could not seat properly. Bought a new inlet and it was such a tight fit that when I was threading the fuel line into it, the darn thing squeaked... Believe me, I partially threaded it several times to make sure that it was not cross threaded or stripping the new part. It was just super snug. Pulled the choke, fired it up, and no leak at the inlet or at the air horn.
Went out for a spin and made the first trip to the gas station for a fill-up. Thanks for everyone's help on getting this thing rolling. mark
