Unlike some modern cars, there is no deliberate leak. A small leak won't affect operation very much, but a large one will (especially with that small diameter tubing to the front carb). So I'd say i

If you're putting back used (not refaced) tappets on the same (not reground) camshaft they ran on before, then I believe it is important to put them back in the same holes. TRactor motors seem picki
