Needle and seat

[ktm24]

Hey, new member here hoping for some help from the pro’s.
I’m currently rebuilding my keihin carbs due to a bad seat causing fuel dump. After inspection I found the seat surface is worn so far a new needle will not seal. Iv tried cleaning and creating a new surface for the seat to rest on but it is just too far worn. The seat must be replaced and since it’s a press in Style I cannot find a replacement, does any have know of a universal style that will fit, I’ll have one machined as a last resort but was hoping to buy one. Thanks

Did you ever get anywhere with this?
I'm having the same type of issue
When I checked float hight at 17mm it leaks but if I set it at 21mm it seals
