83 6.9 IDI broken dipstick

Have a 1983 F350 dually with a broken dipstick for the 6.9 IDI, part number on the stick is 1800989 C3. Trying to find a replacement, I've seen some listings for the same year with differing part numbers (https://www.ebay.com/itm/305475180961?chn=ps) but the only listing with matching numbers is $100. Any recommendations for where to get a replacement if it's the right part number or if I should just get a tube kit for a full replacement?

I'll keep looking, but so far only found dipstick for 1988-1994 -- 7.3L. ($44)

Not having much luck, seems there are a few variations depending on the dipstick tube and no clue if the dipstick was the original. Planning on finding a replacement that is close to the length of the broken one I have, will do an oil change and mark where the line sits after replacing it if its off. Thanks for taking a look
