Feel at the bottom of the carb body, below where the float bowl connects to
the body.  That's where my leaks usually have been.  If that's where it is
you'll have to replace the two shoulder washers that mount the float bowl to
the carb body.

I'm just getting my TR3 up and going for the season, and had it out
yesterday...  Woke up this morning and garage had a smell of gasoline.  Upon
closer inspection, at the bottom of the carb (the rod that the Rod Assembly
that connects the 2 carbs) was wet with gasoline...  No puddles, or even
drips, just seems to wet and then is evaporating...

I never had this issue last year, should I wait and see if the bushings,
gaskets seat themselves, or should I start the process of a rebuilding the
Carb?  Don't really want to start that process unless that's the only way...

Any ideas out there?
