97 powder special zrt600 engine fire

I recently had a horrible mishap when a carb leaked out bottom side and went un-noticed
causing a puddle of gas underneath engine when we pulled her to start she backfired
and not having the boots on her she ignited REAL BIG!
We got it out after 5-6 minutes of heart racing.
I need to see a diagrahm of how the oil injection lines were and gas lines
the 1st carb is froze and or the cable is and other two ok.
but will be needing some time consuming re-work tubing and maybe some wiring replacement.
I looked at it this morning it wasent as bad as it seemed when burning.
I pulled the rope and it turns freely i think i might be more lucky than not.
Id like to fix it as it only has 1200 miles on it and has sat for a long time hence the fuel and carb cleaning and re-start explosion.
