Here's a pic of what it should look like if anyone needs to check. There's a plunger inside the hole that opens at a certain psi of pressure to vent the tank. You should be able to stick a small nail in there and it should move and spring back.
I allways wondered how a gas cap could be vented and not allow the gasoline to evaporate away! Now I know. Thanks 68gmsee, I learned something new today.
