Missing engine part - possibly causing engine oil leak

Hi All

My engine is leaking oil, I have removed the cover and found that the oil appears to be leaking from the part of the engine pointed to by the arrow in picture below. This only started recently after a (home) service so I think its a missing part. Can anyone tell me if I am correct and if yes what is the name of the part that I am missing (I have looked in my Haynes manual but can not find any reference to the section of the engine).

There is normally a rubber hose that pushes onto that outlet that goes to the underside of the air box

Thanks for the reply I don't suppose you have a picture or know the part number. Also sorry for the double post.

The hose should be fitted already to the bottom of your air box - take it off and turn it over just to check
