Dip stick question

I just put a new motor in one of my trucks and bent the oil dip stick tube. I cant find one any where execpt ford and they want $100 for it. Anyone know where I might be able to get one at a better price mine is the one that goes into the oil pan dressed in with a o-ring seal. The truck is a 89 f250 with a 460.

Is it the same as the 351.... I doubt it, but I've got one of those I was just about to throw out. Let me know, I can send it to you.

autozone has smallblock ones for 9.99 or something like that and they are chrome it'd be worth checking if they have a bb one

Check Jeff's Bronco Graveyard out. I was able to buy a new one for my 351W, the old style that screws in the oil pan. Only place I was able to find one.
