cb360 brass ball (BB's) in carbs...where does it go?

The ball bearing doesn't belong anywhere in carb, including linkage between carbs
I have seen them on top of needle on something but definitely not on 360 carbs
There is a possibility someone has drilled out a passage but I have no idea where they got little brass balls from to re-plug holes ;D
It's already been pointed out the throttle shaft end plug is missing.
The only place you'll find plugs is in drillings, choke lever pointing at it in pic and another on fuelinlet (and you can see throttle shaft plug ;) )

About the only thing I can think of, if carbs were left in carb dip ::) the ball blocking primary main jet/pilot jet drilling could have come out if high pressure air was used to blow out passageways?
 
Thank u all! Sadly I don't feel better since after all this, I just found one of my float pin columns has a huge crack in it... JB weld or garbage are my only two choices at this point.
 
I'll do it! just cover shipping back and fourth. But I'm sure you could take it to a local radiator shop and get it done for next to nothing. If not free!
 
There's a guy on SOHC4 who has lazer welding facilities for precision welding
That would probably be best unless you can find a carb body in good condition cheap
 
I've used those type of rods with much success, haven't tried a carb yet but haven't had a post break either. Stuff is harder than the surrounding metal can be drilled and tapped as well.
