Dipstick for engine oil

Is there a gasket or Oring on the dipstick sheath? Where it plugs into the block/ oil pan area.

 

Yes there would be an O ring, otherwise it would leak. This vid is for a 5.7, but would basically be the same for any toyota engine, the dipsticks are similar.

I'm not sure but this looks like it might be a match. Maybe search the part number some more. Hard to tell with the less than clear parts descriptions from Toyota parts. They need to take a page from the motorcycle industry which has very nice parts diagrams to actually see what you need.

 

According to the Toyota parts page this is the part:

Don't mean to hi-jack a thread...but ever since I did long tubes on my tundra I never seemed to find where the dipstick bracket bolts back too...and unfortunately the diagram doesn't show...anyone know/ or have a picture?
Thanks!

 

Awesome thankyou!
I can only assume this is to the exhaust manifold stud.
Thanks!

 

To try and add a little bit of help to the thread

 

No problem.

It's to the cylinder head just below the valve cover and just behind the timing cover.

 

One of the bolts down there to the bracket will ruin your day if you don't have a reversible racheting box end wrench. Ask me how I know lol...make sure you either have one of those or use an open end.
