Default Primary Case leak?

Heya Dyna folk! It seems I've developed a leak on my machine here... check out the pic... It's right where mid control shifter used to be (after the forwards were installed). I've had this bike for quite a while, but this happened after I kinna opened her up about 90mph, which ain't that much, but I haven't really had that thing up that high yet. Anyone else experience this?

Vibration probably shaken it a bit loose. Had an FXR years ago and that hole on mine wore to a bit of an oval shape but as yours was ok when originally pluged as I say would imagine it just needs tightening up.
