Mate no offence intended but read this, have a little think and just do a simple 10 second check.
Grab the brass fitting firmly and give it a wriggle.
If it feels even a little tiny bit loose the leak is between the fitting and the alloy body.
Ford had a recall on these exact same carbs in the late 1970's for EXACTLY this problem when several 2.0 Escorts and Cortinas got more than a bit warm. Cause of the problem was people levering hoses off the fittings and loosening them. It still happens today.

I felt the brass fitting and it moved a tiny little bit. Any way to stop it from wriggling?
