<.... received it this way.>

Just checked my TCF2549L and the oil cap has the material up in it just like
the new one I bought for my '58.  Of course, no way of telling when these
were replaced by POs.  Personally, before I started shoving any mettalic
mesh material that may in time break down and get into the motor I would
spring for a new one, or there is a fairly nice looking used one on eBay
currently at $20(NFI).

my valve cover cap (late tr3b) has nothing in it!  received it this way.
have just got the car running, so I figure I should fill it with something.
steel wool?  coarse?
