I think you could be right, looks like a breather from the final drive unit.

That was my thought but it was under the riders seat. Looks brand new too Was planning to do the final drive oil change as well so will inspect closely tomorrow we undertaking this work. The final drive was changed under warrantee about 18 months ago hopefully this is just one the engineer (parts fitter?) misplaced and there is one fitted.
