Nope, you've got a sticky needle valve...try rapping on the bowl.

Yep, it's very obvious where it is. Looks like a center pivot float so the needle and seat are just below the adjusting screw in the middle of the bowl. Also the float may have developed a leak and is sunk keeping the needle open.

I'm not clear on where the needle and seat is on this carb.
Get yourself a copy of Mike Urich's little book on Holley 4150/60 carburetors, new or used. It's got good pictures and diagrams, and is pretty easy to read.
What you are seeing is the result of too high a fuel level in the secondary fuel bowl. The answer others have given a likely reason as to why it is overfilling. The book will help this all make sense.
