But the rtv is below the carb...it would have had to travel against the motion of the vacuum to get to the carb.

I had an edelbrock performer that I am porting up right now that I am quite fond of. I think it already is one of the best carbed street low-midband range intake so replacing it would be rather fruitless.

On further examination, I think air was also seeping in past this stripped stud...

This car is gonna run like a champ when I put her back together!

Question, should such a vacuum leak cause a drop in intake vacuum? The vacuum guage looked like a solid 20-21 before I had removed it.
