If you can't find the correct dipstick, you can make your own. Next time you change your oil, put in four quarts. Let it stand about an hour or two to let it all drain down. Put in a dipstick and where the oil line is notch the dipstick. This will serve as the one quart down spot (or add oil).
Put the 5th quart in, let that drain down and this will be your full mark. Make another notch At the oil line.
Another way to do this is after you add the four quarts, run the engine enough to circulate the oil. Kill the engine, stick in the dipstick and on the oil line notch it. Do the same with the 5th quart. This will give you the levels like if you pulled in a gas station and checked the oil.

Not positive on this, but I believe that John Mummert Machine in El Cajon CA has new S.S. dip sticks & tubes.
