Carb or electric

Hi there,

I ride my 3tb daily to commute 85% under the rain...
I had a weird problem starting it last winter and after 5/ 10 miles in the rain..
The engine stop , I thought it could be one of the electric connection, the fuse , the spark plug ....?

Then I realised that the rubber intake between the carb and the cylinder was cracked. I've been told by a yamaha mechanics that unleaded petrol damage the rubber after a while.
So I think my problem could also come from there.
Any smilar experience under the rain??

Merci...
