Lost Dipstick - Tattybogle - 14-10-2017

I have managed to lose my dipstick.  Yes, yes, I know, how is that possible? What a dipstick!! All you ever do is pull it out, wipe it, put it back in, pull it out again, read it and finally and put it back in again. Anyway, it's gone, and that's all there is to it.

It is for a 2-bearing engine with the dipstick on the offside rear of the crankcase, the sort with a ball top, not a loop.
Has anyone got a spare I can buy please?

In the meantime, I shall make one to keep me going.  Please could someone tell me the length from the crankcase flange to the bottom, and where the level marks are?

Many thanks,
Hanging head in shame.

(I lost the garage key last week but found it eventually in the laundry basket.  Looked there, no dipstick!)
