So in 1970 all states used the non vented cap, and California used a vented cap ?

I think it was the other way around? Yes 2 different  caps depending on where your car was built for.  They did not interchange, the tabs where they screwed in are different in the tube and the cap. I had a hard time figuring all that out for my car as its a 70 but from CA.  @1 Wild R/T has a good post on this with some great pictures.
