I started looking over my T40 to decide the best way to Dremel out the vent, and hmmm.. why is this flexible? Because it's closed by... guess what... A SMALL PIECE OF THIN PLASTIC GLUED OVER THE VENT AREA!
My photography needs work, but relevant pictures have already been posted. It threw me off at first, the pictures are of left & right cups, and the T50 (pic #2) is shown vent on left of pic, T40 (pic#3) it's on the right.

Differences in damping: pay attention to the small piece of felt cloth around the middle of the housing. This is the T50RP's housing.
And this is the T40RP Mk2's housing.
Black plastic glued to black plastic looks like a solid molding, but a small paper clip fits through the slots, and a firm push to break loose the glue opens the vent:

But I'm not totally sure what to do with this area. Should I just do the Blue Stick first and listen for the changes that mod makes first. Also where do I get those 02 pads and what other pads are available?
