I think I nailed it.

If that doesn't do it perhaps a seeing-eye dog is in order!

On the 78 400 they are both the same. And if you got one two or 10, I’m paying cash money.
I think I’ve bought 2 pairs off eBay. All of the tubes are cracked and rotten.

Rachels 78 CB400...Carb bowls needed.

If anyone knows of other year-model bikes that use these bowls I would appreciate any info to help broaden my search.
Ive looked at pics of 1980s 450's and 500's and they don't seem to be right.

Re: Rachels 78 CB400...Carb bowls needed.

Sleeve them. Go to your local model store - not the same as a supermodel store but way more useful and orders of magnitude cheaper and less trouble.

They sell copper tube for model trains and planes and those can usually be loctited in place to effect a permanent repair. Repair the sets you have and put some of the spares on ebay and make some cash. You may also be able to solder them in place.
