4.0 missing oil dipstick

[Fatherduck77]

Sorry if this has already been asked didn’t see it.. bought a 99 ranger 4x4 4.0 and noticed the oil dipstick and tube are missing. From what I can tell it mounts on the driver side (which is the side I have a nasty oil leak from but don’t know the source, yet) does anyone have a diagram or pictures of where the oil dipstick tube mounts, may be the cause of my leak but I don’t see an open hole or a pinched off tube.

Do you think this is like yours? It's a 97 OHV 4.0.

Is that some kind of training engine? Or careful use of leftover paint?

Obviously it's nicely done, just wondering why that color scheme?

I would not know, I stole the picture off the internet.

It may be like that but know I have a better idea where to look.

The 4.0 SOHC should be about the same but I don't think the '99 had the SOHC as an option.
