    Then 8 clips and 2 hoses come off to allow the air box top to make a very tight slide to the right and you'll see the air filter.

    Did I miss one? I only had one hose, on the right front just above the air intakes.

    No, you're right. The left side hose is the breather and is connected to the box, not the lid.

    Whew! Thanks! I looked into the filter box last oil change. Only oil seemed to be a film collected in the top of the lower half. Nothing under the filer, just around the cover edges. So, I cleaned the top, the cover insides, etc., and we'll see how long it takes to get oil dropping on right side again.
