can't find replacement dipstick

I've been working with my son on our 1977 f100. When putting a set of headers on, we broke the dipstick. I found a part number on the stick
E9ue6750ca. It is a 30" long dipstick and have been all over. If anyone
might know how to find something like this, we would sure appreciate the
help.

Sorry, I forgot to say a 302. Don't think it is the original
motor

Is it going in to the side oil pan or in front of the engine? If in front you can buy a chrome tube and dipstick for a early 289, thats what I did on a 84 302 , It show's the correct amount of oil.

It is on the right side and goes
directly thru the block into
the oil pan. I'll try your suggestion. Thx

I really appreciate the help, I guess I
now know the year of the engine.

That part number is not a determination of the year of the engine.

You need to check the casting numbers of cast iron engine parts to determine that.

Ill look on the engine to verify that motor.
Called Green Sales, said the dipstick with that number
was for a Econoline 350 van with a 302. I'll find the engine
number to make sure. Thanks again for the support

You can get a universal dipstick from most parts stores and I'd assume you'd be able to cut it to length if needed, and use the original dip stick as a reference to scratch the fill level on the new one. They're in the "Help!" section with the miscellaneous clips, fittings, etc.
