Drill a hole in there for a dipstick
Fill the pan with the proper amount
index the dipstick and you are ready to go

Doesn't really matter where you drill it because you are re-calibrating the stick with a known amount of oil in the pan.

Re: No Dipstick?

obd2 blocks has the dipstick on the obd2 oilpump.
obd1 blocks have dipsticks in the block. :1
get an obd2 oilpump and port it for a better flowrate. shim the relief valve to raise the oil pressure.
