ok. If we assume that the kit gasket which resembles Erics gasket IS correct then there is no way for fluid to pass from the reservoir into the 'relief port".

That leaves ONE, exactly one and only one function of the port:

The port is filled with brake fluid AT THE TIME of assembly to act as a 'life time' lubricant for the plunger seal.

Wonder if there is a wick in the 55-56 BTV relief ports" ????
