When Avgas evaporates, all that is left is a faint amount of blue dye, no 'varnish', no gummy anything. When left in small engines, no gummed up idle jets and main jets, etc. I have been using it in string trimmers, chain saws, small dirt bikes, 4 wheelers with no problems. They can sit all winter and start right up. Some complain of hard starting because of the vapor pressure, but I have not found that to be the case.
The string trimmer that I use the most will have some lead residue build up on the spark plug, mainly the ground electrode. If left alone it will eventually short across the gap, I clean it with wire wheel or even a pocket knife.

Smells good when it comes out of the exhaust too, like the airport used to smell. I hate to see it phased out.

Using bolts to draw the two halves together will damage the PTO
