Hey guys - can't believe it's almost a year since I posted this question.

I did solve the mystery of the fuel filter bowl leak. The casting actually distorted over the last 64 years to the point that the mating surface for the glass bowl and gasket was no longer flat. similar to the distortion to the air horn on the carb that I found when I got the car. Solution will be a new/reproduction filter assembly.

Just thought I would post up a resolution to this in case anyone else comes across this issue.

Cheers,
