The overflow tube runs down to below the bottom right side passenger peg/swing arm side plate, but there will be no tube there if you have a sealed (AGM) battery, just the lower 'tube feed-through' on the frame in case a flooded lead acid battery is installed in the future ...... for some misguided reason.

I wonder if when they serviced it they had the plug(s) out and splattered some battery acid on it/them (I could only see the one plug).
I'd be asking the dealer to ........ deal with it.
I don't think with the mileage, service record, and it being contained to only the plug(s), that they would not replace it for you under warranty ..... if not embarrassment.

I recently changed from stock to a Mustang seat. I have had my seat off many times but just discovered the rust when I had it painted. Now too busy working to deal with bogus companies. And these are the only chrome covers I have for the very reason you mention.

I just ditched my HD stock mirrors for a set of Kuryakyn Elipse mirrors, and I'm not very happy with them. Thay look good, but I can't see out of them for the blurr.
I guess I'll try customer service before I give up on them.

In the past on past bikes I had lots of Kuryakyn products and found them all to be great. About the only thing I use from Kuryakyn these days are pegs and peg related items. Not because of any quality issues but because I don't go for the flashier stuff anymore. On my present bike I have the Wings and longhorn extensions and I really like them. I did have a clevice crack but they replaced it no problem. Has worked great since.

Kuryakyn must be pretty popular because at Sturgis, at their exhibit at the Harley Dealer lot in Rapid City, the bikes were lined up 5 rows deep waiting to get parts installed.

Probably already said; their chrome accessaries are ok but their engine upgrades are over priced and they don't perform the way you would want them to. Their forged pistons are ok though because they are made by CP.

I have had their parts on my bikes grips/pegs and have had very good luck. I love the iso grips.
