Yes, the cap does have vent holes - there should be two visible - one on the chrome top part (you may need to rotate the lever to see it) another on the underside and a third in a baffle plate in between those two.

That is the correct type of cap for that tank, whether it's the correct cap depends on it's diameter. They were made in a few different sizes, some fit, some don't.
 
Wow that was quick !
Thanx very much, that answers all, and I wasn't aware of size differences.
So bonus help as well
Now to track down the correct cap, after measuring the filler neck.

Thanx again
all the best
have fun
