if it's going in a fox you don't use the timing cover with the hole for dip stick as those are for front sump motors and foxes use a rear sump, so you'd need to get a pan with dipstick in it or mod a stock pan for dipstick
well heres the deal, i bought the motor from the guy who built it and it came out of a fox so it has the right pan and sump but he kept the timing cover to put on his new motor, the pan nor block have provisions for a dipstick
