Good job on fixing it!!!
But that doesn't really make any sense. Any pre-carb leaks will not affect fuel-metering or AFR. You can start and run the bike with no air-box even. Sure, it may have some mid-range stumbling issues, but it'll still start.
Could there have been leak at rubber manifold in between carb and head? And in process of shoving air-box back on carb, you closed up that other leak as well?
