I have seen some other desmogged 60’s without this.

Not needed if desmogged. I just swapped over to a City Racer. You’ll prefer it over the Aisin carb.
That's the secondary slow cut valve. It was added to USA 2F carbs to ensure that fuel is not dribbled out of the secondary idle port if the secondary throttle is not fully closed. Like many things, it is not needed, but is nice to have.
Jump into the rebuild. I just did my first carb rebuild and my 60 was out of service for one day. Source a good rebuild kit, have a FSM handy, and pinhead’s YouTube videos. $80 total and it runs great.
Your secondary slow cut valve is also missing it’s rubber boot. I don’t think those come in the rebuild kit unfortunately though.

Which kit did you use?

Someone, not sure who said the kit from O’Riellys is really good. Has more stuff in it than the one from Cruiser Outfitters. I saw a photo... it’s on my computer but I’m down for the count on my couch for now. And be sure to buy the accelerator pump from the dealership tho cuz the material on he stock one is leather as opposed to the aftermarket which is rubber. And soak it for a few hours prior to install in 90wt.
They sell a brass float as well that is a nice upgrade to the spongy rubber original. The napa kit has a leather plunger and the venturi caps too. No, diaphragm though. Mine was okay so I didn't need it anyway.I went to my local NAPA and got the one they offered. It was ok, it did not include the secondary diaphragm but they sell one separately if it’s needed.
Ah! Good to note. What exactly fails with the brass float? I was under the impression that the old float takes on fuel like a spong eventually and doesn't float properly.Be aware that Borg Warner & NAPA sell a brass float that is failure prone.
The OE black nitrophyl foam float is failure proof, so either re-use the stock one or get a new one from Toyota or sometimes found in aftermarket box.
