Paul and Imperialists Alike,
In the case of my '56, the way the top filler
breather vent cap is tilted more toward the radiator, when the oil would
condensate in the filler and drip after serious cruises, gravity pushed oil more
onto the water pump area than back toward the hot manifolds or block. I do
not show signs of leakage anywhere one would suspect pressure seals to be
compromised due to the excessive build up. The lower breather tube is
long enough, and was, over much, much time, relieved, thusly I do not yet
believe I have internal or seal issues...............yet. Let you know after I
reinstall, but this I will say: she has never not purred. I am quite
anal about every drip and it drives me and my mechanic wild and this was just
beginning to be "of concern"!!!!
Respectfully,
ybshore
