CVA,
If you aren't going to return the H to a distillate tractor, then you can get a new gas manifold easily enough. It will run the tractor smoother. A good distillate manifold is important for guys who are trying to return their tractors to an original state.
You mentioned early that you had the "original" wheels. I'd guess that the wheels on it right now are the originals, cut to fit rims with rubber added. A '43 H is a "war tractor", like my '44 H. I'm guessing that your shifter is cast iron, vise hard rubber? If you had a grill, the Farmall emblem would be tin, if it's original.
Anyway, it's all not that important if you are just making a good running H that looks good. That actually makes things easier for you, as you don't have to sweat small details, and just worry about things like tearing down the whole tractor and replacing all the seals. :D
Oh, and for the best carb kit, I like to get them from Loren (RustyFarmall). He sells the most complete kit I've seen, and at very reasonable price.
