Carter question

I picked up a '70 F250 390 4-speed today and do have a couple questions.

I know this is a stupid questions but how do you tell the difference between a Carter AVS and AFB?

There is a plate under the carb that water from the intake runs through, what is the purpose of this plate?

After cleaning the carb I did find it stamped AFB and the numbers M9 9627 S. From what I have read I can use a Edelbrock rebuild kit.

Yes, you can use the Edelbrock Performer kit for the AFB. It is a 625CFM with Ford linkage.
