hi everyone i have just had a new engine fitted to my van.now i have noticed there is a oil leak coming from/around the base of the dipstick housing.i know that you remove this when swaping/taking engines out.it seems to be a bit loose should this be some sort of push fit with some sort of seal/o ring and if so what size where would i get one,cheers dave

There should be an 'O' ring and a washer and it is a push fit. Brickwerks sell them
