Is it a problem if the carburetor drain port keeps leaking oil?

It has no effect on the engine. Here is a related introduction about carburetors: Main classifications: Carburetors are divided into simple carburetors and complex carburetors. Carburetors can also be classified into downdraft and sidedraft types. In terms of throttle type, carburetors can be further divided into rotary type and lift type. The rotary throttle is a disc-shaped throttle that rotates around an axis between the carburetor throat and the intake pipe, changing the flow area of the intake passage. Basic structure: A simple carburetor consists of three parts: upper, middle, and lower. The upper part has an air intake and a float chamber, the middle part has a throat, metering jet, and spray tube, and the lower part has a throttle valve, etc. The float chamber is a rectangular container that stores gasoline from the fuel pump. Inside the container, a float controls the fuel intake based on the oil surface height. The spray tube in the middle section has one end connected to the metering jet of the float chamber and the other end at the throat of the carburetor.
