Re: what is this?
That thing is nasty. I can't tell what is white, but you need to dunk that thing in some cleaner, after pulling the injectors out.
I would also pull the regulator off the back (CAREFULLY there is a spring in there) and replace the diaphram and check the spring. Mine was broken into 3 pieces and I search everywhere for one and ended up finding one that required me to make the regulator adjustable.

I can't tell from that pic either but it's possible someone else had it apart and pooped it up full of vaseline.
