J&S Carburetor

I'm knew to natural gas engines, and forklifts. My C500-25 has a J&S Carburetor. The service manual doesn't tell me much. It looks like the carburetor has a connection to the radiator. Is that how they work? There is a small leak above where it connects to the head but the spill out on the head seems oily. I've googled J&S but don't find much info nor do I see the same shaped part. Can someone tell me about this?
Thanks.

The carburetor has a fuel line to the fuel regulator that is mounted in the thermostat housing by the upper radiator hose. Is that what you see? Does it run ok?

In 1898, author Morgan Robertson wrote a novel called 'Futility', which described an "unsinkable" ship named the Titan that sank after hitting an iceberg. Fourteen years later, the Titanic sank in a strikingly similar fashion.
