Yes, but the air comes in through the surge vent in the radiator cap.

Beav, I agree with you 100% when the system is pressurized. But the system isn't pressurized 24/7. And when the system leaks , by definition, it is no longer a "closed environment". My point is that the weep hole on the water pump is higher than the thermostat, so the air entering the system has to rise. Into the motor. Which eventally settles in the heater core somehow. No hot water in the heater core, no hot air from the heater.
