First some advice.
Don't nock your stuck needle jets out with a metal punch! The tutorial shows them being removed w a pencil (better idea).
I damaged all 4 to various degrees. Not major but I expect the surface condition is critical so I am going to replace them.
Anyone know where I can get just the needle jet? Randakk's doesn't appear to have them. Cheap carb rebuild kit on Amazon includes them. I might try them as a last resort.

Perhaps look for some new OEM jets on eBay. Others may have a better idea. Aftermarket are known to mostly be inferior.

You should remember that it's peace of mind you're after and not just fixing the machine. R.Pirsig

Also the aftermarket kits cover all the years with one part. They were/are not all exactly the same.
