273 dipstick tube length...Dads is...BROKEN!!

Hey Grim and Hawaii thanks for the pics!!
I have no idea why they are different lengths to them and it doesnt really matter, what matters is how much of the dipstick is sticking out the bottom into the pan, as that is where the measuring takes place. Dads also didnt/doesnt have a mounting tab and his block I believe is a 66 date code.

Hey Cobra50, shoot me a pm, we may need it, Im going to chk today and see what the depth on Dads aftermarket one is.

Hey Red, why were you asking bout the fuel pump gasket??

Thanks everyone!!
