Just got it all back to gather so I can confirm if its all good now. I drilled 3 more holes in the side of the cap, and put a .003 stainless shim under the gasket so it wouldn't plug up the grooves.

Thanks, I found that tiny mouse maze under the gasket, kinda crazy if you ask me, but it works for me.
