Sigma wet sump dipstick tube hole question

[ChrisC]

Hi All

 

I have a little oil leak from the dipstick tube, where it join the sump, so this got me looking at the parts web site for the possible parts I am going to need to repair. I noticed the design of the sigma wet sump dipstick changed from my car. The photo on the parts website of the wet sump seem to include a threaded adaptor for the dipstick tube. My 2011 sump has a press fit tube the dipstick tube slots into.

 

So the question is has this changed, or are they just old pictures on the parts site ?

undo the bolt where the top of the tube is fastened to the bottom of the airfilter,and see if you can give it a little twist.note the crank shaft position sensor is zipped to it.
