Default 289 v8/Holley 4160/Leaky Throttle Shaft

Hello, all. I'm looking for a bit of advice and experience with this. I'm not terribly technical and my trusty mechanic is working on this carb. We've noticed a little bit of fuel seepage in the marked spot. Could someone please educate me as to what this part is called (is it a secondary throttle shaft?), and what might be causing the fuel seepage? Someone mentioned that I should just get a brand new carburettor. Thank you in advance!
