Bluejacket has them. They have ones with the funnel at 1/8th DIA. and the shaft at 1/16th DIA. I think thant should look OK after I shorten them.

I kooked at a model on steel navy. They look like typical ventilators, if those are the ones you mean. If so, you could probably find some 1/350 small ones. I have piles of the things in 1/400ish from old Revell flatbottom kits, but they aren't well formed.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Hello;

The main turrets on the Oregon show 2 vents on each turret. Anyone know where I could get some vents. They are not included in the kit.

Cowl vents?  
 
You will probably need to go to a ship model supply house such as BlueJacket Models and order a couple white metal ones in the appropriate size.
