I can give you a couple for $5, including shipping. That's basically
nothing for the zerks plus my min shipping charge.

If you're talking about the plastic plug that's on top of the
rectangular breather box, that's NOT an oil filler cap. It's intended
to stay in place permanently. If you don't have the regular Type 3
filler pipe, then you must have a Type 1 engine that's been put into
Type 3 service. That cap won't stand to be removed and replaced
repeatedly. It will come loose and fall off, just like you've
experienced.
If that's the situation you're stuck with, I don't know what to
recommend. You may have to find some sort of plumbing plug that will
withstand repeated removals. Check with your local hardware store.
