You might be right there.... but.... MOGAS is almost famous for not being altitude friendly. The darn stuff will evaporate like smoke in a hurricane if you have enough altitude. The forward facing vents will help apply a bit of ambient pressure on the MOGAS and help prevent it from evaporating. Note venerable aircraft like the DHC Beaver and the Cessna C180 don't have these vented caps because they use AVGAS which is not nearly as volatile

Could you resend the pics I did not see them on the first run. I am having
trouble with the sight tubes on my VI turning yellow and not being able to
see through them.
