Hi,
If you show a pic of the carbs, I might have the bit as I had to extend my carbs and so made new bits.
Regards
Bob

If it's like the one on my Keihin carbs (Honda CBR600), it's the 'open to the air' side of the diaphragm - it's to let air in
and out as the diaphragm pulls the slide up and down. Originally it would have been linked to some form of air filter connected to the outer carb,
with that tube between it and the next carb in.
You could leave it open, but originally I guess that they thought it important to keep muck out, so it would probably be a good idea to replace it.
In my case it was just a rubber tube, which I split and extended. It's not structural, so anything that gives a reasonable air seal would do the
job.
I've attached a picture of my modified tube...
HTH,
David
