I cut a strip of gasket paper and roll it around a bolt to form a little insulating sleeve. 2 or 3 times around is usually enough. At the vent there was something like horsehair. You could cut a little piece of a kitchen copper scrubbing pad for that.

The vent hole should have a fibrous material in it. You can see some of it sticking out on this photo of my 1951 Henney-Packard’s pump which I rebuilt a while back.

A bad vacuum diaphragm will often lead to oil burning and will usually disable windshield wipers. A bad diaphragm may allow enough oil to reach the intake manifold to cause plug fouling in two adjacent cylinders.
