(1) Scrap yard any stick will do as long as it fits your tube and seals well, and hopefully a long 1(you wont be able to access it from rear flap to check levels) Original like rocking horse poo.
(1a) Try and find 1 from an Air-Cooled, push it in and when it hits sump bottom cutoff exess to fit, (after new fill with oil to max (4.5ltr) put a mark on the dipstick for future ref, of were oil level is.
(1b) You will have to cut existing tube to shorten the access for alternate dipstick.
(2) Oil change to include fitting New Oil Filter. 4.5ltr. (but depending were drain plug is on Angled Sump. if like mine even raising front end to drain still does not empty complete.) so after adding 4ltr check oil level, Dont overfill, (4.5ltr Max)
