Now, this kit here:
Carburetor Rebuild Repair Kit for Briggs Stratton 492495 493762 498260 | eBay
is for 498260, but there are many parts in the photo which I cant figure out where they go. Should I be able to use ALL those parts?

No you won't use all the parts. This kit fits some of the older engines that had adjustable idle jets, as well as the newer non adjustable carbs. I suspect you won't use the fuel adustment valves, or the cork looking air cleaner gasket.

Thanks. Good to know. Time to place order.

Well, finally got the kit and installed a new seat, and a couple of gaskets, along with o ring. Still no priming capability. I did check to see if the float was level when placed upside down, and it was, so that first got me excited. But, to no avail, as still bulb does not prime gas. Dang. Now what? Guess I could order a new filter housing(?). Nothing else to do, right, people?
Sheesh, good thing it's not cutting season!
I popped out the seat, but al the shops nearby are out of business! So, figured Id order it online, but I dont know the exact carb # I have. But, I have these numbers, people:
On the plate above the muffler is : 125K02-0243-E1 (space) 03081157. I believe thats the model # for the Briggs engine. Should that be enough to identify the carburetor? Now, on the carb itself, are #'s: 6150, also 2183. also 8105, also 214122. So many #'s!
If someone here can let me know, I can order a kit.
Thanks
With the above engine codes, which part # should I order for the housing? Reply appreciated. Man, this project is taking forever.......
