Got a 1.7L engine with Dellorto Carbs which I took out the idle jets and notice on one side they are both 50 but on the other side they are marked 55 and 52 could there be a reason for this or a case of anything goes?

+1 on the possibility that they have been drilled. Need to start with known jet sizes or measure them. You can't always go by the size indicated on the jets. They can even be soldered and smaller than indicated on the jets after redrilling.
