Explain why you would shut off the auto oiler? I'v never had an issue with using it and makes my chains and sprockets last a long time. Just wondering ...

Yeah looks like the chain got loose and banged up the swing arm also. I found an engine case- top and bottom on eBay 110 bucks free shipping it should be here by next week. Hope to use the new top part.

Sorry for the confusion. I was refering to the common way this failure happens to this bike. A neglected chain snaps & punches a 3" hole in the cases in front of front sprocket. Usually when this happens the case pieces go flying never to be seen again. In yous case you have all the case pieces. With the cases split the top case can be set on a true flat surface. Then tig the loose piece back in proper place. This will give you a permenant no problem repair. If the mating surface is not matching then you will constanly leak oil from the repair spot. Which is not visible when the bike is assembled. Top end will fail real fast if the engine gets low on oil. If you are able to dis-assemble engine it should be less than $50.00 to fix + a gasket set. As an aside if your bike has the auto oiler I would shut it off & use spray chain lube.
