Horler says this:
"Ventilation was initially by closed circuit recircula-
tor valve fitted to the inlet manifold, but, without the
removable valve chest covers, the crankcase outlet
was now located on the front of the timing cover cas-
ing."
Does this "closed circuit" mean I should have a non-venting oil filler cap.
