Too much fuel to the point of fouling spark plugs, is not a jetting issue it is a serious fault. Although a 223 @ 0.050 cam won't suck much vacuum either.
I'd be looking at float levels, fuel pressure, incorrect assembly, jammed power valve etc. etc.
My lists don't mention a 23-3025, is it a BX carb or a WW ?

Is it a 23-3045? This is a pretty common HQ 253 carby. |

3/8" would be a very large main jet, more suited to a Top Fuel Dragster me thinks.
Most BX Stromberg main jets are in the 0.052" to 0.059" range.
Main jets really only effect mixture at cruise & WOT, not at low RPM.
As I said, you have a serious carby problem, or the cam is just too big & the carbies will need to be modified to give a good fuel supply at low RPM & off-idle situations.
You need a good old fashioned carby tuner to look at it. Where do you live.
The only six X2 carbies that I have listed are:-
23-3009 BXUV-2 Early HD 179 ci (X2 Front) Auto & Manual
23-3010 BXUV-2 Early HD 179 ci (X2 Rear) Auto & Manual
23-3015 BXUV-2 Late HD 179 ci (X2 Front) HR 186 ci (X2 Front) Auto
23-3016 BXUV-2 Late HD 179 ci (X2 Rear) HR 186 ci (X2 Rear) Auto
23-3023 BXUV-2 Late HD 179 ci (X2 Rear) HR 186 ci (X2 Rear) Manual
23-3024 BXUV-2 Late HD 179 ci (X2 Front) HR 186 ci (X2 Front) Manual

I meant the outside diameter DR Terry, my mistake. The Jets are 055 but it is running too rich. Can you remember what sizing the X2 Jets were?
Engine is running fine but still to rich, if fuel is too rich will this affect Vacuum?
I am in Bunbury W.A
