As the title says , was considering fitting a few radiator onto an old oil burner/boiler . The system wont be connected up to a copper cylinder as there is no need for hot water. What I really want to know is what is the best way to vent the system ?
fitting an open vent system for radiators only

A feed and expansion tank. This will vent it and top up if need.
Can use a pump.
Is the oil boiler a oil fired?

Yeah its oil fired. I was going to do a 22mm flow and return and tee off for the radiators in 15mm . Is it ok to tee off the 22mm in 15 mm for a feed and another off the 22mm for the vent ? I was concerned that with the pump turned on it might pump out the vent pipe

off the top tapping on one side of the boiler -over top of f+e tank . Cold feed from bottom of tank to bottom tapping on the opposite side of the boiler . then flow to rads -top tapping of boiler opposite vent and return opposite cold feed . So that you get cross flow round the heat exchanger jacket when pump is on
