I was back looking at my pics as well Toddy.
I am also mechanically thick and could not spot the gearbox breather.

I found the Gearbox Breather too Doc - I'm now feeling quite proud of myself
PS - Twizz sent me pictures to help me out a bit!
Well lucky you.Care to let me in on the secret.
Here’s the GB vent on my TC… you should have the same plus the inner Primary one..
You are correct - we have discussions on both running here as the following has happened amongst the M8 crew
Some thought they had a primary vent which was the gear box vent
Some have the primary vent and cannot find the gearbox vent
Some have both
Some are having a bike delivered today and need to check
Some thought they had a vent, it appears on strip down they didn’t
Think that covers it.....
Next Week - Sumping and upgraded oil pumps!!

Ah, I can rest relatively easy as I've already paid for Doc to have a current version oil pump. Or at least the oil pump that was current at the time. Probably.

I’ll take some clearer photos when I’m back in the workshop, although the line drawings Twizz posted up are pretty good….
