Windshield washer reservoir overflow

I just replaced the headlamp washer nozzles on my Sl and when I filled the reservoir it started dripping on the floor. It never dripped in the past and I probably never filed it to the top in the past.

So does the windshield washer reservoir have an overflow or do I have a leak. I figure that if it stops dripping in a short while it is an overflow and if it continues to drip it is a leak but does anyone know for sure if it has an overflow mechanism?

Mike.

I searched here and found this on the subject.

I'm thinking that the filler neck has a problem and will be taking the front wheel off again when I get the chance.
