It literally says in name they aren't breathing. You can become a vampire who don't need to breathe but still have body parts meant for it.

Does anybody know how to become an elephant man in adventure mode? I literally did all advanced world settings possible to increase chances.

IRL it depends on the gas. E.g. chlorine gas causes all kinds of problems not just with the lungs. I am pretty sure NO_BREATHE creatures are already immune from death from suffocation due to lung damage or paralysis. But I would expect the tag to have no effect on blindness from eye damage for example.

Yeah, they don't breathe actually. I've tried it with inhalation syndromes, they don't take effect on vampires, because the vampires never inhale them.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

Contact gas - should have effect. Inhale poison gas syndrome - shouldn't, but inhaling, example, tobacco smoke when smoking is possible even by creature who can live without need to breathing but have lungs.
