Gas is slightly dripping/pouring from the bottom of the carbs. I know it's a safety mechanism but it's pouring too much for it to be normal. Will my carb rebuild kit fix this problem or do I need to go into more detail

Depends on the condition of the carb needle seats, if bad kit won't help. Pic there is not encouraging. And if the kit is a cheapo Chinese one the needles often leak brand new, the rubber on them is crap.

You have to pursue the absolute cause of the leak, two kinds there. One is the o-ring at the drain screw, the other way is overflow from needle not seating or cracked overflow tube from water frozen to crack it in winter if you are up north. I see Florida though.
