    OK so I mispelled CADMIUM (a poisonous metal, although shiny). It is often mispronounced as CADDY-UM, but when you spread it real thin you get CADDY-LAC! Anyway under all the grime the label on the side of the carb says ROCHESTER QUADRAJET, so your comments have been quite helpful AND I used the edit feature to correct the spelling! The list of metals came from an Internet search on "White metal" but they didn't give the percentages. Note that elements 49, 50, 51 are Indium, Tin and Antimony, so if your Aunt-had-the-Money you could plate your tin motorcycle with element 49 (In) and it would be an INDIUM bike!
    (I should be doing something better with my/your time??) Thanks again for the tips on the carb rebuild!
