Default Missing 710 cap

Went to fill up the washer fluid this morning and noticed something odd, the 710 cap was missing. Just a little bit of oil surrounding the fill tube and the dipstick still reads full. Last oil change was about 2800 miles ago and the hood hasn't been opened since then, guess the mechanic either forgot to put it back on or it was on loose and is able to vibrate off.

It's right next to the blinker fluid reservoir.

Called the dealer who did the oil change and they said to just stop in and they'll give me a cap. Needed to go over there anyway for my hanging vent line RRT anyways so I'll get it over lunch.

I'd be ticked if there was significant oil loss or a huge mess under the hood, but apparently they don't throw much up the fill tube.

Jeez and the dealer just put back on a plain black one. Took them almost an hour to replace the diff clip and screw on an oil cap, must have decided to take lunch in the middle of the job.
