Bought a 1980 CB750F a few months back

when I was rolling her into my garage, I lost my balance and had to put her down on her right side (ever so slightly)... now my number 3 carb leaks from the drain valve... any advice?

Thanks
 
A tip over causing that leak is likely because pressure on the side of the carbsruined a fuel passage between 2 and 3, or 3 and 4. Use a small mirror to pinpoint the leak. If I'm right, the leak will come from carb #3's left or right fuel rail. If it is a poorly seating float valve, the leak will come from the overflow.
