Rock auto, might help to compare pics with yours? Go to their sight, they have bigger pics if you hit the info buttons.

Hit the local parts store and ask for a rebuild kit for your year / make / model / motor size with a Motorcraft v2 carburetor.

You did not say what is wrong with the carburetor but most of the time a good cleaning / rebuild kit is all it needs.

Every carburetor I have ever owned had the make and model stamped on the main body of the carburetor. If you have no ID markings you may have a chinese knock off carburetor. Getting a rebuild kit for those might be hard to find. You're probably going to replace it with another chinese knock off or get a rebuilt ford carb. Later you can probably find a rebuild kit for an OEM carb.

His OEM is actually a motorcraft, but the detail tag is missing.
