Theres a crankcase breather pipe just above the engine sprocket (well there is on a curvy).
If you've had the airbox off, theres a chance this pipe has come adrift.
Oil mist gets pumped out of the crankcase and condenses on the frame and underside of the fuel tank etc then runs down.
Could be the cause?
