That little donut is in fact a lead packing. You will need to remove it all from the carb in order to install a new one. I have this same little thing to replace on my SMTA as it leaks gas around the needle. I'm afraid to tighten the brass packing nut anymore for fear of breaking it. I believe (I haven't replaced mine yet) the way this works is that the packing nut when tighten compresses the lead packing around the needle to prevent leakage. When done correctly the needle will require a screwdriver to make an adjustment. Mine at present is very loose hence leaks gas until down to that level in the bowl. The lead packing part is readily available at a CaseIH dealer. Hope this helps, Hal.
