Original VW Vanagon Wasserboxer oil dipstick and dipstick tube assembly.
Removed together from a complete 1990 VW Vanagon 2.1L MV Wasserboxer engine, engine number MV066472.
The dipstick and tube were together on the engine and are being sold together as the matched approximately 15-1/16\" from tip to seating point
Dipstick tube: approximately 11-1/4\" overall following the curveUpper end of tube to mounting-bracket area: approximately 9-3/4\"Red dipstick handleVW used different dipstick-tube routing on 2WD and Syncro/4WD Vanagons. Because the MV engine itself was used in both applications, the engine number does not establish which chassis this assembly originally came from.
The matched dipstick and tube maintain their original relationship for checking oil level. However, tube routing, mounting position and ease of access can differ between 2WD and Syncro installations. Please compare the tube shape, bracket location, measurements and photos with your original before purchasing.

the Red Color is supposed to Identify it as a 2wd but it it appears that most of the parts on the engine are of the Syncro variety so it appears they will interchange and read the oil level correctly because they protrude into the engine crankcase themselves the correct ,same amount on both but one might be harder to reach than the other behind the license plate access area with out bending it to make it more access able please refer to attached image with mesurements
