By a fluke I found some good pictures of an original Cord oil filler cap.
It is the same type as my blurred pictures.
There is a vent pressed in the base section.

I guess mine needs some rework. The photos I used were a bit blurred.
See the attached pictures.

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

It is my understanding that 34-36 Auburn and 810-812 Cord used the same oil filler cap. I have a couple in stock.

Attached are some pictures of the cap I made. I was working from pictures of an original cap. Note the construction of the cap. It has two strips that are bent to form four legs. The legs are riveted to the top cap. The legs are brazed to a lower cap which has a hole and a disc welded to partially block the hole.
In the original the lower cap and disc are one piece in which the disc had been punched to open it.

All of the caps I have seen on cars on show in Auburn have a rivet and definitely do not have a screw holding it together. Your smaller cap has probably been modified.

Cord Oli Cap was created by pac32
I have 2 Cords that I am working on and they have different oil caps, see picture , The Cord that had the larger diameter cap on it is being converted from a 12 volt system with a alternator to a 6 volt system with a generator. That Cord is a 810 that has been modified with outside pipes and a round air cleaner similar to a supercharged air cleaner. My problem is with the generator on the car it pivots the oil fill tube over more towards the air cleaner and the oil cap hits. Is the larger cap incorrect for a Cord and also is the smaller cap avalible to purchase as this cap would fit fine.
