It seems to spray a little bit of oil while I'm driving. It might just mist oil but it's enough that I smell it when I stop and get out of the car. I can see that there is a little slick spot on the engine right below the hole. Is there supposed to be somethiing that covers the hole? You might need to know I have a single carb and fuel injection stuff has been removed if that has anything to do with it.

well, if you have head breather hoses, those may still be connected to the fan housing...that is one hole near the oil filler.
If that is the case, you need a head breather box to replace the air filter setup on the FI system.

The next hole is the crank case breather system...once again, you need a breather box. This hole is in the oil filler box itself, and it aims straight up.

Both will blow a mist, both need to be plumbed into a breather.
