Jake recommended I do this for my engine. Apparently this involves welding on a 1/2" fitting to the cover. Anyone got pics?

I don't think you should vent the valve covers themselves. Just drill and tap in the stock location. If you put the vent on your valve covers you have to remove that oil line at every valve adjustment. I know for a fact that Jake didn't mean to actually vent your valve covers themselves, even if that's exactly what he said. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) He meant vent your valve cover area via the head. Like this:
