The jet block in a VMax holds a pilot jet (#42) and a main bleed jet (#44). The main jet (#46) also screws into the jet block, but is not in the same configuration as the pilot jet and main bleed jet, which lie parallel to one-another. There are two rubber plugs at the end of the holes of the jet block into-which the pilot jet and the main bleed jet screw-into. The rubber plugs rest against the body of the carburetor and keep the passageway for each of those jets, plugged.

Maybe one time in 26 years of working on these bikes, and owning them, I've seen exactly one of the jet blocks, upon carburetor teardown, have a loose brass jet. Never has it been a main jet.
A plugged jet or a jet no-longer properly screwed-into its port will certainly affect the normal operation and proper carburetion of the cylinder it serves.
