Is that "one" plastic plug on top. If so, then you can't have the problem that 
I was thinking of.

Check your breather box. It should have a pipe that runs straight down from the 
RR  bottom corner. There will be another pipe coming up from the oil filler 
pipe, near where it joins the case. There should be a short (~3") piece of hose 
that joins the two metal pipes. These do not need hose clamps.

There should be a hose that runs ffrom the RR upper corner over to the air 
cleaner.

Is everything there and connected nicely? Is the box tight on the breather 
stand?

If all this seems correct, can you describe again where you think you see the 
most (or the wettest) oil?
