How do I seal the stock dipstick hole in the block????????????
Please help, this is Bob's wife helping him, he is an hour away..

thank you

are you plugging it or just trying to get the stock dipstick not to leak? stock dipstick has a o-ring on it if memory serves, or if your trying to plug it, a little silicone will work

 

either way just put some silicone around it.

 

If he is just trying to get the stock dipstick to stop seeping just put a little locktight near the stop that is built on the stick and drive it in. If he is trying to plug the hole where the old dipstick was and using a pan mount stick just take the old dipstick tube and cut it off about an inch over the tube stop and put a 1/4X1 inch bolt in it and braze it to the tube then put a drop of locktight on it and drive it in.

 

Thank you everyone for helping me I'll pass it on to him..

 

Thanks for trying to help my wife yesterday guys, i wound up buying a 7qt Canton oil pan and it has its own dipstick and i didnt even think of the stock dipstick hole until i was about to install it.

What I did:

Cut off the old dipstick tube 3/4" up from the rip with a pipe cutter so it stayed round. I brazed it shut, dapped some black RTV on it and filled the hole with it. Shouldnt be a problem right??

Thanks guys..
