Sorry, I missed your request to see what I had done with the oil filler on my truck.
Maybe you have a solution already but in case you don't, here is a picture of what I did. Mine has a PCV system so the oil filler cap is sealed, I see yours has a breather cap. No reason why that would not work the same way I guess.
This is my '62 pickup, the tube is brazed into the cover with a large fillet. It has been there for 30+ years with no trouble.
