34 pict 3 Carb clean/rebuild question

I am cleaning/rebuilding my carb and looking straight down into the
float chamber I can see what looks like a jet. This is above the main
jet which comes in below it from the left.

I have blown the main jet out with compressed air but this one is
either blocked or never had a hole in it. It just looks like the main
jet but the hole in the middle doesn't go straight through.

Does anyone know if this should have a hole and if so how do I clean
it if compressed air (canned air) & carb cleaner doesn't work. I have
not tried sticking anything in it for fear of damaging it.

The carb is a Bocar and has 1988 stamped on it.

thanks for any advice

Can't quite picture it, but that must be the inlet
for the accelerator pump. There is a tiny ball check
valve immediately after the inlet which blocks it.

The accel pump passages rarely need cleaning, so I
would leave it alone.

I went and dug up one of my 'junker' carbs and I see what you are
talking about. It's part of the accelerator pump circuit, and from
that angle the drilling is blocked by a pressed-in plug. Don't worry
about it being blocked, it's supposed to be.

I don't think it is part of the pump circuit, its in the same section
as the main jet in the middle, not on the side of the chamber where
the pump comes in.

I have a photo I intended to attach but can't find how to?
