Where's your dipstick?

  1. Novice here or ACVW newbie still.

    Converting T4 to DTM cooling for insert into Ghia. Oil filling is now on top attached to alternator stand

    Im looking for an alternative place for the dipstick.

    Options:

    1) Use existing two bolt flange and fabricate tube for dipstick, however this has to come through the tinware.

    2) I have seen engines with the dipstick on rear RHS top of the engine, adjacent to the breather assembly. I think they may be Vangon engines.

    Does anybody have info and photos of option 2?

    thanks for reading this
