messed with my intake tonight

a member here named mitch gave me a free edelbrock performer intake...i sandblasted it down and shot 5 coats of clear on it..then i took my old intake off and then found my freakin intake gasket was screwed up so i have to wait till tomorrow to finish....as i was lookin at it i decided i need to tear it all apart and repaint everything.....im going to be buying the GM style aluminum tall valve covers for it so i set this old set of tall ones on there for now to see what it looked like...

2 questions....
#1 what would cause gasket sealant to get brittle and fall out? i dont remember what type i used but it freakin turned flaky and leaked like crazy.

#2 also what can you clean a carburetor up with?

it started with this blue one...
