Sounds like a good idea to me. Now all I need is a compliant female.
Black oil on a brown dipstick is easy to see (diesel), but the first time I checked mine I was a tad concerned - it showed no oil! But trying again showed the correct level, there must be some sort of seal in the dipstick hole on the diesel.
