Perhaps its less ventilation than your Marshall but it does have a vent on top, directly over the valves where the Kustom currently doesn't. I think I may have to take a saw to the top of my cab.
Unless one or both of the valves have glowing-red plates, which shouldn't happen if the amp is operating normally, the likelyhood of the speaker getting damaged, or glue melting and the leather peeling is pretty remote, I haven't had any of that happen to my Marshall amp or my Fender Super Twin amp at all to be honest.
