Wierd Dipstick

[John Mitchell <jmitch@snet.net>]

    I'm posting a link to web site where I've posted a picture of the 
dipstick that came with my 76 TR6.  The lower portion is correct as the 
quantity of oil added and the lines seem to work.  The upper portion 
looks like others that I've seen, but with more bends.  Anyone have any 
Idea what it's from, or could it be that since my car is near the end of 
the run, that British Leyland was using up odd parts?  Thanks for any 
insight.  John Mitchell
