BE CAREFUL
G'day M8,

7.3 oil dipstick leak?
If it's just this leak around the Dipstick tube itself then no real drama to fix.

Oil leak at dipstick tube flange fixed -with pics!.
However if it's the flange itself then be sure to study up on how to fix that flange 'O' ring. The second thread is a good right up with excellant pics.
Big, big drama if the dipstick holder gives the dreaded "ka-ploop" into the sump 
Be careful.
Just hope it is only the Dipstick 
Good luck,
Reg.
