Oil Dipstick & Tube 66 442-400

The dipstick tube that came with my un-assembled engine has the little mounting bracket broken off.
Looking for a nos/used tube w/bracket. There is no pn# on the tube, it’s 15.25” overall length.
The dipstick, pn#464624 appears to be the correct one for my engine based on previous threads with charts.

66/67 400's didn't use a mounting tab.

Finding factory 400 1966 dip stick tubes isn’t an easy task, you can use the 68-70 tubes. May have to mark the full oil mark yourself. I think that’s what I did on my 66. Cannot recall 100% but I definitely bought the repop 68-70 tube

Walt Vallelunga is making some repo tubes and dipsticks for the early 400/425 motors.

I just messaged him, he has them. 135.00 for tube and dipstick plus 10 shipping. I ordered one. I bought his last set of chambered exhaust tips that he had made. Top notch work

Andy, how do you contact Walt? I need a dipstick and tube as the one that came with my engine is incorrect.
