It seems as if some (all) of the aftermarket timing covers have the dipstick hole too small for most aftermarket dipsticks, the last couple I had were anyway.
Of course this is something one usually doesn't think about till the last moment....
On Jim's I just bit my lip and drilled the dipstick boss on the fully assembled engine bigger, this was after destroying the stock tube and starting to destroy a replacement. No way it was going in.
