<VV> Stuck needle

Along the way I acquired a spare LM HV carb but am having a problem. The 
carb apparently sat somewhere long enough to develop a bad case of the 
whites inside. Have been able to almost completely disassemble (even got 
the PE needle out) but the Pump Discharge Needle  (#11 in fig. 21 page 
6M-10, 65 Service Manual) refuses to budge.

Have been soaking alternately with WD-40 and DeOxIt for about a week now 
but no movement yet. Anyone have a suggestion on how to get it out ? Am 
considering filing a slot and attempting to turn with a screwdriver.
