The tank was pretty large, at least a quart maybe a little more

You are correct. 72 Olds has a recovery system like you described and looks original to the car. I have only been 235 a couple times. With some fluid loss after being shut off. I'm usually 220 with 110 plus outside air and no fluid loss. Just want to be able to stop checking every week and adding some fluid. Would rather capture and send back.
