Default Troy-Bilt chipper w/ 8 HP B&S motor problem

I borrowed a Try Bilt chipper from a friend who said it hadn't been
used for a few years so no guarantees it would start.
It has a battery starter, but the battery is dead so I put in a little
fresh gas and gave it a try
After a few tugs gas came out the exhaust. I took off the air filter
and gas was down in the neck.
I'm thinking this unit was stored outside, and the carb froze and
cracked.
TIA.
