It's impossible to see the leak with pictures.
It is not unusual for gaskets to dry out on a 40 year old vehicle and cause some tiny leaks.
In general, that should not really be a problem........IF it doesn't get worse and you don't mind a whiff of gas
odor when starting out cold.
It likely is the gasket around the top of the bowl.
IF you can find the proper gasket, the fix should be fairly easy. Should be able to do it without taking anything off except the bowl.
BUT if you have never dis-assembled a carb before, I strongly suggest that you let a shop do it.
Have you tried to carefully tighten the screws that hold the bowl on ??
The key word is carefully.
