[TR] Newly rebuilt TR3A motor

I had my newly rebuilt motor out on the road for the first time  today.  All 
is well.  After about 8 hours in the garage a significant  oil drip appeared 
under the vent tube.  I am certain that is the  source.  The motor has an alloy 
valve cover without the breather vent as  the stock one has.  It has the 
sealed fill cover with the very tiny vent  hole.  Does anyone know if I can get 
a 
breather cover for this type of  valve cover, and, is this expected to improve 
as the rings seat?
