EZ outs, especially the small ones, are next to useless, except for compounding a problem. Left hand drill bits are less brittle and often will grab and back out a stuck right hand fastener; of course, the alignment has to be good-drill press recommended for small work.1981 gs650L

Heating up the carb body can help get stuck screws out. It's not only the heat going to work on the gunk, but the different metals expand at different rates.
If for whatever reason you find you are SOL with a #3 carb, you could run those two #2 carbs in the center positions of the rack and switch to a manual petcock. Probably best to get it sorted in the most factory correct way though
