Welcome to the site. I almost feel like a Clymers is only for diagrams. This site has been and will be way more informative when it comes to hands on issue experience. You'll find that with the majority of your potential issues there is a unified answer rather than needless suggestions. Everyone here has walked me through every issue I've had no matter how big or small.
And unlike many forums member logevity and post counts actually mean something in here and you can generally take their advice to the bank. There's also quite a few members who've built there bikes from the ground up and sell the parts to help you do it as well.
The tech section is by far the best I've seen on any site. And asking a question in here won't get 20 replies telling you your an idiot that should learn to search. It usually receives an immediate answer and/or a link to threads where that particular problem were addressed and eventually solved.
Welcome aboard and good luck with your S40. 36k on an 07 is some good riding miles. Go thru her and do the obvious. A few things to look into while in the tech section.
Raptor petcock (already mentioned)
Cam chain tensioner (should be near the second time @ 36k)
Brass plug (as you mentioned)
White spacer mod
