Hello All. I just obtained a 2007 Blast. I have notice a slight oil leak when running. Can anyone tell me where this is coming from (see picture). I am new to motorcycle maintenance, etc. Thanks in advance.

Either airbox dripping on to it or inner oil cam seal is leaking.

Thanks, I think I have it narrowed down to the cam seal

Replacing the cam seal is a very easy thing to do.

Simply remove the little black cover, remove the timing cup, mark the ignition module position with a scribe or a permanent marker and remove, pry the old seal out with a small screwdriver and install the new one with the appropriate sized socket.
It can be replaced in less than 20 minutes working slowly.
