FEs are prone to air pockets when you change your coolant. What works for me is to jack the nose of the car up high and crack the heater hose fitting in the front of the intake manifold to let the air out as the coolant heats up. Regarding breathers, you want a PCV valve, preferably routed to something like the brake booster at the base of the carb. A PCV valve in the right (American passengers) valve cover with a breather in the left (American drivers) side valve cover works well.
