If you're talking about the part under/between cylinders 2 and 3, and above the starter cover, that's the camchain tensioner, I think.
Those microfiches can be weird on where they place parts.

Here's why it's leaking oil and how to fix it. The seal and o-rings that are leaking are usually not on the fiche, but these part numbers and instructions should work for you:

Some cam chain tensioners look a little different (different angles, two instead of three bolts), but they all work exactly the same. As far as I am aware, the part numbers for the seal and o-rings and the instructions are the same for all GS models. Lots of people have used these instructions in the last three years, and no one has emailed to complain that they didn't work.
The gasket at the base will obviously be different for some models.
Best of all, your total investment will be something like $4 to $6, depending on where you get Suzuki parts.
What sort of bike do you have there?
