If I remember rightly on my UK spec bike, viewed from the saddle, the one on the left hand side is the water/spilled fuel drain and the one on the right is the tank breather.

If you open the filler cap you can see the difference (the lowest hole is the drain).

Its worth checking the drain as on my Lemans it was blocked both in the tank fitting and the pipe (due to it being tie wrapped too tight down near the starter)I only noticed when after washing the bike I opened the cap and water poured into fuel :angry:

After removing the fitting I used a drill bit to clear it and then replaced the squashed piece of pipe with a piece of copper brake pipe (hidden by the starter cover)
