On a 1300 twin port beetle, standard shift, in 1972, it was a 31PICT-3 carburetor. The originals used that year had base flange numbers VW 360-1 or VW 360-2. Used a 113905205AL distributor.
If you can open MSWord document files, my "master chart" of carbs and distributors can be found here:

| When you say base flange numbers, where would I find those? |

Just across from where the throttle cable attaches. It's actually a "modification state number" as VW had many versions of any given carburetor, for different applications, different countries, different emissions, etc.
Here's some examples:
