My AFB is leaking gas at what seems to be the secondary shaft. Is that possible?

And common. There's a few people/places that bush those holes, some even do it well. Or at least did, haven't checked for a long while, may want to check with the Scott Harms.

I'll try the float level first. Easy 15 minute job.

Only two floats,no rear,if it is actually leaking out the "rear shaft only" it would be a flaw in the casting .
