I only have one which is in new condition with a vent tube, will post a pic soon.

This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

You can buy the vent tubes for a few bucks from places like vintage, classic or micks. You drill a hole in the rocker cover, insert tube & seals then tighten with a nut from inside the cover.
