Default Help! loose cable/leaking fluid!!

so the last few days ive been out to the bike to find a few (4 or 5 )drops of yellow liquid under it, specifically under the engine. This liquid is yellow and upon closer inspection is over the left hand side engine cover and stand. I also noticed this black tube, pictured below, that wasnt connected to anything, and this gold knob that hasnt got anything attached to it but blows air/fumes out when the engine is running!

Please somebody help me!

thats the engine breather and should be connected to the air box via the big rubber hose that has come off so just go ahead and connect it back up.

Great just connected that back up! would it have done any damage to the engine? and how can i keepit from jumping of again haha

Also would that maybe have been the reason for the drips under the bike, seems like it was coming from around that area

Shouldn't have caused any damage to anything, just keep an eye on it to see if it comes loose again ...
