And there are also 3.5 or 4.5 auxillary venturis.  Usually not an issue.

Yes, the brass bits are expensive.  I have a small plastic tackle box that
holds all mine.  I should probably do an up to date inventory of the 
contents,
I imagine the replacement cost would be on the order of $1500, give or take
a few hundred.
