Leky canisters? '87 Honda Elite CH250
I just picked this up yesterday and I'm getting started on sorting through it to see what needs fixin' (it's 29 years old, so I suspect a lot). Anyway, upon pulling the right side cover, I found these very wet canisters. I have NO idea what they are. Anyone familiar with the old Honda 250cc?

You may want to download the service manual, if you still can.

Thanks man! That PDF is exactly what I need! Those canisters are the crankcase emissions control. Turns out they're leaking because.... wait for it.......... 2 of the clamps aren't on right, and they were full of oil. Probably never emptied... it only has about 4k miles on it. I've wiped a lot of the oil and grit away and put the clamps on correctly, so we'll see if it continues to leak. The rubber is old and the clamps could be stronger, but I don't think it's worth trying to replace right now.
