It will come apart with care using Uncle Stanley, and looks like this inside

Mine was blocked solid, but once open cleaned out easy enough, and a bit of araldite or silicone sealant to put back together again.

You do get a lot of build-up in the 2 main passages, and the two tiny orrifices easily block.  Carb cleaner is the stuff to use.
