Should there be a hole in the airbox?
Should this be here? it's hard to tell but it does go all the way through and doesn't look like it was drilled or chipped off or anything. Also, it is upstream of the air filter (side with unfiltered air coming in).
If not I am going to plug it with some epoxy I guess. |

They all have it. It's been a while, but I seem to remember that it doesn't let air into the downstream side of the filter, so it causes no problem.
Next time try to post a really big photo. |

Haha I just wanted to make sure you could see every individual molecule of plastic.
But thank you I will leave it be then. |

It’s a screw hole for screw that holds two halves of airbox together. Scrape the broken plastic bits away and you can see way down. Count screws, there should 12 of them.

My money is on liquid drain on the upstream side of the filter.
