I went ahead and ordered the conductor plate. OE Plate,gasket,plug and a dipstick. Can I leave that dipstick in full time?

That dipstick is twice as long as required, cannot be left in place. I used a dipstick - then somehow lost it.

then used a roll of tubing from homedepot (best dipstick for 722.6)

is the plug on the harness ok? - the taping will be unwrapped though - very easy to replace that plastic shell and use some silicone fusing tape to wrap the harness loom onto the plug shell - Looks very nice and doesnt peel off with oil and heat.

In some cases that connector shell needs replacement as some mechanics damage it by not lining it up correctly.

The transmission has been into before because the lil red tab is broken off the cap.

Through the dipstick tube or the pan dropped?

You should not have any problems doing the conductor plate.

I need to go back under there and look again. Take a closer look maybe get a picture. But I can’t get any photos to upload on here anymore. Wait I tried to put pics of the car in my album. Never checked to see if they appeared.
