As I think ERA Chas suggested, I would cover each hole with a small piece of duct tape for starters, then use a piece of perspex over the carb top to observe whether any fuel is being pulled from the main venturis at idle. If not and the idle quality does not change then a dab of devcon or epoxy on each hole should be a permanent fix ( RTV would swell & break down over time with exposure to fuel vapours etc ). If it still requires the holes for idle quality then you have to decide whether the road conditions etc that you normally drive on are going to cause any problems long term-dust-grit etc and if so look into conversion to later idle ezi system etc.
