Default Question for the Quadrajet guru

When I was removing the Air Horn from my Quadrajet it was missing one of the Secondary Emulsion Tubes (Air bleed). I found it in one of the holes in the main fuel bowl. I pressed it back into the top of the Air Horn, but after doing so, noticed that the tube passes up through the Air Horn. It seems to me that this is too far and no longer exposes the end of the tube to the secondary fuel discharge nozzle below the air doors. Is this correct? The other side that didn’t fall out appears too high also. When trying to position then in the Air Horn so as to expose the end to the secondary fuel discharge nozzle the Air Bleed tubes fall out. Should I press the Air Bleed tubes into the Air Horn and once I have it installed on the main fuel bowl, push the exposed end of the Air Bleed Tube down through the Air Horn?
