Unanswered: little brass pipe loose

I have a problem that is only noticed when I change fuel from LPG to gas, the little brass pipe that lets the gas in the carb, comes out of its place, how and with what can I make this, so it will not come off again??

I asked that question a couple of months ago with respect to my Weber 32/36. The answer was to pull t he tube and drill and tap the hole with an NPT. Then screw in a hose barb. I have not done it yet. When I do, I plan to move the inlet to the otherside to shorten the hose run. Maybe I will even install an elbow to eliminate the bend.
