I have an original vent tube. It basically looks like drip tube (used in a
garden) but softer and more pliable. It has probably 1/8 holes spread just
far enough to connect to the vent caps

That is a good point for originality. Does anyone have a good close
up picture of the original vent tube and the original battery caps?

If you're a stickler for originality, don't forget that the original battery
was vented. Each of the six filler caps on the original battery had a
nipple that connected to a vent tube. The vent tube ran through a hole in
the bottom of the trunk. You can reproduce the vent tube fairly easily
because it's just a rubber tube with six holes in it and a plug in one end.
The tough part is the filler caps with the nipples.
