the engine oil cap is not pressurized and does not have a universal type of fitting. The radiator cap is pressurized, similar styles used by nissan and toyota should also fit the evo radiator cap. Not sure if this is what your asking though.

No, it just means you got a fresh seal on the cap to help prevent it from leaking oil out.
