In case of fire, break the glass.
1- En kazo de fajro, rompi la vitron.
2- En la kazo de fajro, rompi la vitron.
I found both in the tekstaro. What is the difference between en kazo and en la kazo

Note that 'glaso' is for the drink container. The material itself is 'vitro'.

It seems that okaz/ and kaz/ are sometimes interchangeable - I see both cxiuokaze and cxiukaze.

Okaze de is not wrong, but is more often used for events (try searching the tekstaro).
Kaze de is a more recent expression*, used for contigencies as well as events, and should be fine.
*judging from the tekstaro) - it appears only in Monato and Ondo de Esperanto there, i.e. recent magazines.

Why shouldn't you be able to say
Okaze de mia reveno (when I come back - on the occasion of my return)
Kaze de mia reveno (should I come back)
In other words kaze de is more theoretical. It doesn't imply that something will actually happen.
