the dip stick is located in the timing belt cover. but this pan does not need a dip stick the bolt on the side is the fill mark for the pan just like a motorcycle check hole.

thanks for the oil pan drain link, i already have that though!

i keep looking at the pics and dont see any room for that long ass pick up tube that goes from the front of the engine to the rear of the sump ware the oil is sitting in the lower part of the oil pan..
