Lost dipstick tube!

Hey all, I just realized that my dipstick tube didn't make it back from the machine shop. I plan on calling him tomorrow but it has been 7 months. I'd imagine he would have called me by now if had noticed it.

Anyway, would anyone have any tips, instruction, dimensions, about making one? I'm not seeing anything in the parts catalogs for one

My stock 60 3/4 ton has a 23" dip stick from tip to stop; 3/8" x 14" tube from block to top.
I wonder if these folks have clutch help

A place in Sacramento got me going; addy if you want.

Thanks Jim! That will help a lot if I have to 'come up' with 'something'. I didn't get a chance to call the machine shop yesterday, I'll start there. If I can't figure out anything local I'll hit you for the Sacramento folks.
