I have a s3 Li150 with a Jetex carb. Engine and exhaust are stock as far as I can tell.
I'd like to buy a new carb for the scooter. Would a PBHL 20 be a good standard option?

Had you considered a scootopia 22mm should fit straight on.

And probably easier to set up.

Jetex can be a problem, but if fettled carefully can work. The Scootopia sh2/22 is a better choice nowadays.

If you want a modern carb the PHBL or a PWK type at 24 mm could be good and you'd stil be able to use the airbox.

Thank you!
I'm going to look into the the scootopia and PBHL 24. Scootopia seems like it'll do, and the price is right.
