if there is fuel dripping, the manifold has got an opening somewhere. Besides dripping out, intake is sucking air in as well.
If the clamps are not loose, manifolds are not ripped, seated and installed correctly (they are directional head and carb and marked as such) they should not leak at all.
Is it the Left or Right side dripping? you need to remove and carefully examine the offending manifold.

explain? this was after receiving the carbs or before?

"Looks fine. Felt fine when reinstalling.
But the more important part, the float musta stuck in order for fuel to be there. Also backed up by the fact that the cylinder locked due to fuel in it."
Cylinder locked? Are you saying the crank is not able to rotate?
I only wish I could be present at start ups, I've more questions, but lets cross this bridge first.
