Default Thermostat question

Hello all.
I have a 96 Camry 4 cyl with 298,000+ miles on the clock.
My question is about does the thermostat have a pressure relief valve to it? My Chiltons book does show one in a picture but the one I bought from Amazon it's a Stant "superstat" # 45758 with 180* but WITH OUT the/a pressure relief valve. What say you all do/does it matter that this one (Stant) doesn't have it?

The sales product info on this thermostat model states it does have a bypass for air but its not the typical loose rivet type. If no rivet then a bleed notch.

Amazon Amazon

Item No 3 at the bottom of page link..

One picture shows no bypass "pin" and other picture does show three "V" notches two visible and one not visible. I didn't read the Notes guess I have Egg on My Face on this one, LOL
