Need a bit more info and photos that show the issues at hand. Can't tell where you were getting this liquid out and can't see the liquid.
Is your oil level ok?
Is your coolant level ok?
Does the bike run?

??????? Those are the only 2 liquids in the bike engine, so one has to be low.......If not then it was a small loose of coolant when the engine over heated. ( except fuel)
What does the spark plug look like ?
Can you show a photo?
Does the bike kick over ok?

Ok, if that is the tube that the fluid came from....It's the oil breather tube.
It will blow out oil if.... Too much oil was put in the engine or if you are getting a lot of blow by from worn rings. It's not unusual to get a tiny bit out when the engine is run at very high rpms, but any more is sure signs of an issue.

How many hours on the engine from the last top end job?

How does it feel when you kick it through? Does it have normal compression? If you have a broken piston ring, it'll pressurize the crankcase and blow oil out the breather.

Before you focus on something leaking from what is likely an overflow or breather, does it have?

Compression? Fuel? Spark? in that order based on ease to test.

I'd say around 80

Kicking it feels fine and the spark splugs is fine but there's also oil leaking behind the front sprocket?

That sounds like a bad seal at the output shaft behind the front gear. It's easy to replace.
You may want to consider a top end job as 80 hours is a lot and that can result in blow by which can result in the engine building up crankcase pressure and blowing oil out the breather.
