The wire on the accelerator pump arm that lifts the rubber stop is the bowl vent. The tube seems to be over the enrichment needles in the jets, so pouring gas in there would get into the intake to prime the engine, but I don't know if the gas is actually going into the bowl. I'm not familiar enough with that particular carb and tube.
