    The two lines that run out on the left side of the bike towards the rear brake, 1 is not plugged and 1 is and when you take the plug out a little what appears to be oil runs out. What exactly are these for.??????

      The unplugged one is most likely the fuel tank overflow drain line. It should not be plugged.

      The plugged one is most likely the airbox drain line. It should be plugged to prevent vacuum issues. Once in a while it should be drained, and plugged again.

      The case breather has a hose that recycles back into the airbox. Oil/fuel/water will collect in the box... that allows you to drain it without removing the airbox.
