Regardless of how they showed up you still must have vent holes in the traps. I had a MA5B twenty years ago and although it had vent or moisture holes the traps still collected water.
Put the traps on a drill press and drill small 1/8 holes in the covers.
Make sure when assembled the holes face down.

Among other problems, the original traps tended to collect moisture and take a long time to dry out, so I'm concerned that the replacements might be even worse. Does anyone have any experience with these unvented traps?
