hi guys, as the title suggest I have 67 svchost.exe running and is shown in my task manager. Should i worry? Malware bytes and Avira free not showing signs of hostilty. I am worried, but just a bit. Thanks for any input!

Are you using Windows 10? It seems that Windows 10 splits every single thing that svchost is doing into processes. I have the same amount of svchost.exe in my machine as well. It doesn't really matter but if you think you have viruses/malware in your computer you can scan it with Malwarebytes or something. EDIT: You've already scanned with Malwarebytes. I don't think you have anything to worry about.

you can download a program called Process Explorer, which is basically a much better version of task manager, and it will show you exactly what each one is for, and what they are doing.
