Since my gas filler, with a vent tube, was badly corroded I replaced it with a new one, My question is since the new one does not have the vent tube connection, can I use it with vented cap instead or do I have to weld in a vent tube connection?

Well, no, it's not. You will at some point enjoy the scenario of fuel puking all over the side of the car. Please take the time to weld in a fitting and do this right
What is the one you are going to use out of? There were several different caps used "over the years" of the smogger caps. I want nothing to do with any of 'em if I can help it. If this were me, I'd also silver braze something in the filler / tank for a 3/8 return fitting "just in case" future return, regulator or even EFI

Vent cap is fine. It will not PUKE ALL OVER THE CAR if you don't fill the tank. If you car doesn't have a vent in the gas cap drill a 1/8 hole.
