Sorry if this ends up on the list twice.  The first time had  active 
hyperlinks and I think the list server doesn't like that.
 
As I posted earlier I installed an alloy valve cover with the non breather  
cap, and discussed the resulting oil coming from the lower breather  tube.  
I have solved the problem (maybe) by getting a 3/4" washer  that is 2" in 
diameter and soldering a 1 1/2" OD chrome over brass tail  piece from a sink. 
 There is grinding and fitting to get it just right, and  I have yet to 
make the rubber gasket, but check out the pics.  Yes,  there is enough bonnet 
clearance and now I have a breather cap.

It is not yet in service as I am rebushing my rockers.  More to  come.
