Ya know i wish i could find just 1 factory picture showing the rear cover on this thing.

It may be incorrect but i decided to install my cover with the plug at the top, I figure with the vent in the housing pressure won't be a problem, and i can always use my finger to gauge the level and keep it a bit lower than the plug.

Besides, my plug was a leaker and i don't know if my home made gasket will be any better.
