If I'm not mistaken, there is also an airbox drain somewhere down there. Normally, this is a low frequency maintenance item, but if you have removed your airbox snorkel or are using a Bellmouth it should be checked more frequently. When the airbox fills with oil from the crankcase breather and water from rain and washing, it can eventually saturate your filter causing some pretty awful performance characteristics. Figure out a way to drain it every couple of months and you won't be sorry.
