Hi, I have a 1974 Carver with twin302 ford v drives. One engine the oil
dipstick broke off in the tube, and the other has a real bad leak at where
the dipstick goes in the oil pan. ok, now what are the tubes press in with
a
rubber o ring, threaded in, or welded in?
Thanks
Steve
(im praying threaded or pressed in with an o ring)

I seem to remember they are just pressed in. An interference fit, no o
ring.


Yep.
