Dipstick tube?
 
Is there a rubber o ring or something that goes in the block where the
dipstick tube enters on a 304? I just ordered and installed the dipstick
tube - it didn't come with a seal or anything. Where can I get one if
required? Would the standard autozone have it or maybe the dealer?

Nope, it's a press/friction fit.

It will go in easier if you put the tube in the freezer for a half hour
or so.

A little BG-Weld doesn't hurt either.

Prolly not, but if you ever want to take it
out again it might be better to use loctite 515 or 518
instead of epoxy. :)
