You can see that these O-rings are starting to chamfer slightly not completely dome shape.

The cap also as to be tight ie turn it until its hard to move, if to mush coolant in the tank and the cap is not fully down combined with poor O-rings you will lose coolant through the cap.
PS regarding heat from blower your stat could be opening too soon, most of them on diesels go that way in the end so an inline stat is added.

I actually replaced the 0 rinfs not too long ago as I thought it could be this. the car has done 240,000 miles so I accept little issues. I have been looking at the in line stat fix.
