I came to comment that also. I have a Kawasaki FH 580v I did replaced my oil seal while I was in there. But the source of my leak was definitely that breather cover. The screws were loose. Hugh dirt, grime build up over it. Engine just a oily mess under the shrouds, just like the one in the video. The upgrade version comes with longer screws. The plate itself is thicker. Thankfully, I didn't burn my engine up, running it with the cooling fins all stopped up. I've put about 40 hours on it since the repair. No oil leaks. Oil level is rock stead on full mark.
Good job
The breather cover is often a source for oil leaks on these , too. They have an upgraded version available
