i have a GSR motor that was just swapped into my integra

there is oil leaking from the BASE of the dipstick , and it seems to be kind of splattering on my headers and around the dipstick

easy fix? best stuff to use ?

my local shop said something about that part being " pressed in " and they wouldnt look at it

 

Bah, pull the tube out and replace the dipstick tube o ring. Might be $1.50 or so...

That's bs. A can of mapp gas and some channel locks. It will come out. I changed the brake booster port on my intake manifold because it got kinked during shipping. That fitting is also pressed in. I put loctite on it the new fitting and pressed it back in. to the machine shop.

 

does my header have to come off to fix this? what should i expect to pay to have that O-ring replaced/sealed
