As suggested, the engine breather is on the left fwd side of the engine and routes to the left side of the firewall just outboard of the port steering rod, it will drip condensation around the area of the aft side of the nose tyre on the port side.

Incidentally one reason why you should not tighten the dipstick up with the force of a gorilla to stop oil leaking out of it is the actual crankcase breather is lower than the dipstick in height and open to atmosphere, over tightening the dipstick can loosen the tube or crack it at the bottom where it can leak.
