Diff oil out the vent, why?

It’s a pretty common issue with the earlier vent location. Mopar moved it in ‘70 to be further out on the tube. I have an earlier one in my Duster and it definitely leaks oil. But if it plugs it pressurizes the housing and pushes the gear oil into the bearing grease and out past the seals and into the brakes.

Not my picture, but I’ll repost it as it’s pretty useful
