Oil dripping from smog pump on TT250

After every ride I notice a little oil dripping from the bottom bolt of the smog pump or whatever you call that ugly device bolted to the right front of the cylinder head. Once I wipe it off it doesn’t drip again until after the next ride.
I haven’t removed the tank yet but just looking up in that area I can’t see anywhere oil could be coming from up there. Also, it looks like new clean oil rather than used black crankcase oil. It’s not coming from the forks and blowing back as they are clean and dry and there is no indication of oil anywhere else.

Is it possible to eliminate all the emissions crap and any other tubes, hoses, wires etc and have a basic, simple motor with just a pod filter and exhaust like the old days ?
