It may be a pain in the butt now and expensive if your not mechanically inclined..but get the transmission fixed and you won't have to worry about it except for your periodic fluid change and check-ups.

I know..easier said than done..but, in the long run will be the best vs. possibly running low on fluid one day and destroying your transmission. No company that I know makes a dipstick to answer your question. Good luck and get that case fixed

pnuematic clear tubing between the drain plug and reverse opening would give a good slight level gauge, but just more places to leak.

With all the fittings it'd be close to $100, you'd lose reverse lights and still have to fill the tranny all the time.
