You're not supposed to see it.
Tube on the right front cam cover is for oil vapor to blend with carb intake air, under the tank. What does not end up recycled thru the engine is free to find daylight and make the rider wonder, where's the leak. Mine was in the rear cylinder spark plug area, since I rerouted the tube to the intake pod on single carb setup, it stopped.
