Choke provides a fixed amount, so should affect idle most and as load/RPMs increase, it affects fueling lesser and lesser amounts.
Yup, hose at T junction is an atmospheric vent. It provides reference signal to float-bowls for determining how much fuel is metered. Regular maintenance should including inspecting that hose and cleaning it out if necesasry. I've found dirt, grass and even spider's nest clogging that hose.
What additional cleaning did you do that wasn't done before?
Did you poke out all lateral bleed holes in emulsion-tube and pilot jets?
Did you scrub all hidden secret fuel-circuits in carb-body?
How many turns-out is your pilot-adjustment set to before? and now?
