Did a original valve cover for a '54 235 engine not have vent slits in it, and did it have a vented cap with mesh wire or did it have a cap like a radiator car?

Thanks

A 1954 235 (and, I guess the 261) truck engine had a valve cover held to the head with four machine bolts/screws on the sides (stove bolts). The valve cover had four slits in the top and the oil filler cap was not vented.
