The service bulletin was issued in August 1969, so it doesn't specifically
relate to the ventilated valve covers.
That explains a lot about your replies - I was reluctant to assume one or other
of us was being dense, but was running out of ideas for an alternative
explanation.  ;-)

So, everyone, it's a possibility if anyone gets oil leaking from the breather or
air cleaner (or the breather cap pops out?) that the cause is simply the rocker
cover gasket has slipped at the top.
