KK 6\' RFM gear box vent?

The people here are great. Thanks for all the help so far. I greased and topped the gear box oil and looked for some type of pinhole or mesh vent to clean. I could not find one on it anywhere. I would like to get everything on it ready to sell next spring. It's a 1995 FM. Does any one know if there is a vent of some type on this gear box? Thanks for the help.

Look at the fill plug.. flip it over.. does it have a small pinhole inthe bottom.. and perhaps a rounded 'jiggle' metal cap pressed or squished on it? if so.. that is the vent.. DO make sure it is clean.. otherwise things like seals get pushed out..
