803 hydraulic top up

I've exhausted online, hours & hours of searching - service manuals, quick start guides and you tube cannot confirm this.

I feel crazy I cant find it, but can someone confirm that this is the hydraulic filling cap, next to the filter cap?

Thanks Mick. The filter cover is gummed shut, dripping fluid through breather.

Don't forget to fix the breather or the oil will deteriorate rapidly
