What the heck is this part?
It's embarrassing to ask but what the heck is this thing? I noticed the oil leak and went looking through the part-finder for a gasket but can't seem to figure out what it is. It's right below the intake boots off the back of the engine.

Cam Chain tensioner which has multiple parts you'll need and are hard to find separately. Brian Wringer's website has a tutorial with a lot of information you will need.

#18 is just a washer. The fiche on most models is missing 10mm seal around the pushrod as well as the o-ring around the setscrew (the setscrew is #17).
