Oil level in SU carbs

My Haynes manual states that the oil level in the dashpots on an
HS4 should be 1/2 inch *above*  the top of the hollow piston rod.
This applies only to carbs with vented damper caps.  Has 
anyone had any experience with this?  It seems to me that the
oil would leak down into the venturi or something.
