Yamaha R1 Tank Leak from Breather/Overflow area?

Ok guys, this is getting on my nerves, and I am hoping for someone kind enough to be able to assist me.

Not long ago, I took apart my fairings including my tank to get them painted. long story short, after getting it back, putting everything together, I put gas in the tank, and it seeps right through the breather/over flow hose area. Now my bike never had any hoses connected, and now, out of no where, it leaks gas badly from those 2 "nipples" where the breather and overflow hose get connected. To my knowledge, a hose is NOT required to be connected. This is confirmed because I was riding the bike for well over 2 months [with out the hoses being these] and it was running completely fine.

I tried to look online for any help before coming here, but I had no luck, so any bit of help or input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
