See how the dimple on the insulator goes under the port on the bottom of the carb.
FWIW - I do not use gaskets on the carb, insulator, and manifold on my '54 3100. My insulator seals against the carb and against the manifold. I tried using a gasket on each side of the insulator, but that made the carb sit too high and the accelerator linkage to the carb too short. If your insulator is a reproduction made from hard plastic, it may need gaskets.
The screen looks like it was cut from Mom's window screen and used to keep out flys (?)
