While the paint is off the outlet hole of tank, examine it very closely with a magnifying glass, etc. for a crack radiating from the threads.
Or the steel plate solder-to-tank being the culprit.

Thanks, I will do that. I am sure the leak is coming from the bowl. It's very loose. You can move it with your fingers. Does anyone make the brass fuel line? Mine has a rubber hose on it now. Since I will be taking the fuel out, it would be the perfect time to fix that?

just keep the rubber line, the hard line is more trouble than its worth.

Unless your going for a show quality resto as others have said keep the rubber. This is what I have on my O. I like the clear stuff, you can see if the fuel is flowing.

I got the fuel line at O'Rielly's off the lawn mower parts rack if that helps. The brass fittings came from Lowes if memory serves.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
