XR2 carbs

Can anyone help on this one?
Still going thru the jets on my carbs, turns out they're the pumper carbs. On looking to see what the idle jets are in it (.096) the manual says it should have backdraft? jets in it which are situated next to the idle jets, they seem to have been taken out of my carbs, can anyone tell me if they've been taken out for a reason? Or have they just been poached for someone else's carbs!

On the pumper carbs I have seen lately, they have had the .096 jets in the triangular-shaped inlet in the front of the carb.

But on my later non-pumper carbs the jets are removed... they don`t appear on any part-lists either.

It's definately confusing! on mine I have the jets on one side of the triangular inlet (left side) but nothing in the other hole next to them. Is that what you've come across?
