Default WEBRA engine - carburetor?

***Posting this for a friend***

Due to having about everything they make I have a carburetor that I can't identify the engine it was made for. It's a regular TN type case, but the barrel has # holes in it. It looks as though they added the third hole at about 220 degrees and the others at O and 180, as usual. What was that design made for?

Default More info

Had a chance to see this carburetor. The extra hole my friend is trying to describe is in the wall of the carburetor barrel itself. If you were looking at it from the bottom with the throttle closed, the extra hole can be seen with the spray bar visible. I can only imagine that the purpose of this is to enrich the mid-range. So.........was this a carburetor possibly for a helicopter engine or jet or whatever? Don't have a digital camera but will try to get a friend to snap a picture and post for me. Thanks for the help.

I've never heard of such a carb. Most likely, it's a mod made by a previous owner.
