So what you are saying is I can see the nut through the oil level sight glass if the oil is drained ??? You mean I can see it and identify if it is the correct one ???
Pls let me know asap.

edit: is it a normal nut or a left hand threaded one (tightening counter clock wise) ?
Yes you can see it through the hole, just lean your bike to the left to let the oil drain away and the nut is to the upper left. I can see that mine is silver with the "LHT" marking cut out of the corners. So if it's black or silver with the cuts it's correct, yes it is a LHT.

As I said above, the dealer told me that there nothing wrong with the "wrong" nut, it's just that it may not have been tightened to spec when assembled.
