What is the vent looking cover that sits on the left side of the engine (opposite the carb breather)?

NFW you're serious.

Try pressing the buttons on the left side of your handle bars especially the one that says horn.

Thank you. I expected to get a smart remark or two since I am new to Harleys (and since I don't own a Harley, it would be hard to press the buttons on the left side of my handle bars that say horn). I was once told there was no stupid question but the one you don't ask.

Yeah, definitely better to ask a newbie question than randomly go up to someone's bike and start hitting buttons to see what happens. If the question is really legit from someone who's never owned a Harley, I guess it's reasonable. Hell, I couldn't tell you what have the crap is hanging off a metric bike nowadays.

Ok maybe Stupid isnt the right word to describe that question.

Oh and you will be hard pressed to find a Carb Breather on a Fuel Injected Bike

It's not just on Dynas.
Look on other Harley models, you'll see it on them as well.
My Touring model for example:
