My '89 CV daily driver was smelling a little more "oily" than usual so I popped the hood and took a look. There was a little white/grey smoke coming off the drivers side exhaust manifold, but that valve cover gasket looked fine. I then pulled the dipstick to check if I was actually loosing any oil.
What happened next sure surprised the heck outta me.

Neat-o! :rolleyes:
How in the heck does an oil dipstick tube rust in half?
I suppose I have to get another tube from an '89 CV with a 302, correct? I do have one from a '89 CVPI with a 351 but I assume that one won't work.
