My oil dipstick tube rusted and broke behind exhaust manifold. I removed manifold and carefully worked on getting the rest of the tube out so that I could replace it…. Well… I failed miserably! Now what? Does anyone have any suggestions besides pulling everything off the bottom to get oil pan off.
It is broke off clean with block. 🥴
Any suggestions?
