I hope that pic shows up right..
86 KDX 200
Is this little thing on the back of the engine case a vent? Should it have a line? There's a little bit of standing gas on the cases right there I hope is from this port. This is right below the carb.

When new, it came with a hose to the top of the side of the airbox.
6 x 9 x 500
Look on the parts diagrams to see it.

Ah ok. Should it be there? Could that be spitting small amounts of gas?

Gas is probably coming from carb. There shouldn't be any in your transmission, which is where the vent is coming from
