Default Oil Dipstick location!!!

Hey guys, I tried searching but couldn't find anything. I just had a hell of a time installing my ARH 1 7/8 Long tubes on my 01 c5. Well I'm putting it all back together and really don't have the patience to try and find the whole again cause it's such a pain in the ***!! So I figured i'd be lazy and ask you guys, anyone know which primary the oil dipstick bolts back up too.. and where the whole for the dipstick goes back into oil pan.. even a diagram online would be great. Thanks alot guys and happy easter!!!!

Well, for one thing, the "whole" is not in the oil pan, it's in the side of the block.

The tube brace up top fastens in a different location depending on the year model of car and/or which headers were ordered for it.

Happy Easter.

Google and/or Bing really is your friend if you let it be.
