Believe it or not, there is a hose, running between the cylinders, with a plug in the end. This hose exits on the left side below the left air box. You are supposed to drain the oil out of it now and then....I eliminated it, and a bunch of other stuff when I built my own air box. My large K&N filter takes care of any oil that comes out of the crankcase breather...Harley guys, who dump the stock air box (don't they all?) use a little mushroom shaped filter to stop this from dripping on the ground...

I've had oil puke into the intake before.  I can't remember the details exactly as it was a while ago but in the end I think I chalked it up to overfilling the crankcase.  In any case, I didn't to anything to 'fix' it (aside from making sure the oil level was right at the next oil change).

So I recently posted about some oil on my fins and was pointed to the cam bore plug fix, which I did (thanks guys). I seem to be getting even more oil on the fins and pooling further back, while trying to find the source I thought to pull the air intake on the right off, at the bottom was a bunch of oil, any ideas on this?
