<p>The oil dipstick tube bolts to the passenger side exhaust manifold. Did you see a metal tab on the tube with a bolt hole it in it?? If not, it may have broken off. There is also an o-ring inside the the transmission housing where the dipstick tube is inserted. If the o-ring is bad or missing and the tube is not bolted in properly, the transmission will leak like a sieve when the car is parked. Been there, done that.</p>
