I have been rebuilding a 273 and the engine is ready to go in but the dipstick tube was broken off. I removed the rest of the tube that was stuck down in the block. I am going to fire it this week, but without the tube I assume it is going to spew oil everywhere. I have a 1987 360 that still has it's dipstick tube, will it fit into the 273? I would think all small blocks have the same style tube. Or does anyone know a parts store chain that stocks them? Thanks everybody.
