If anyone might have a dipstick the one I need has the flat finger hook, the same as an early 60's Chev, my motor is from a 63 Impala.

I think I still have one from a 68 307-should be the same?

Learn something every day.....Apparently the colour of the plug / tip denotes the length of the dipsticks that were used in the late 1960's & 70's Chev motors.
