If everyone else's advice fails, start looking for some off the wall reasons for a leak. Maybe a crack in the carb where the seat screws in? Slight flaw in the gasket under the seat? How much sideways slop is in the float hinge? Too much wear in the hinge and the float can rub the inside of the float bowl. Take the top off the carb and hold it upside down with the float installed. Gravity will pull the float down and push the needle against the seat. While holding it that way slightly lift the float and feel for glitches or catches. The slightest catch in float movement will cause it to not push the needle all of the way into the seat. Get out the magnifying glass and take a close look at things. Chances are you won't find anything that unusual but it doesn't hurt to take a peek.
