Default Gas Adjusting Valve Seat

I am rebuilding a carburetor for a spare. After disassembling the carb I soaked it cleaner and hosed it out. It looks like a good core. Looking down the bore into the GAV I see where the casting bottoms out and there are four tiny holes in the casting that would lead into the cavity going to the carb bowl. Is this a carb that has the removeable seat and I am seeing how casting looks on the other side of the removeable seat? Thanks for your help, Ed

Should be one hole for the gav to seat, may be looking at some dirt and appears to be four holes? If removable it will be a brass fitting with gasket,looks like a comp jet. some carbs do not have brass fitting but still have a tapper
