DEPENDS ON THE MAKE AND MOTOR BUT MOST ARE A PRESS FIT INTO THE BLOCK WITH A RUBBER O RING AT THE BOTTEM. GOOD LUCK
There should be a fastner that secures the tube assembly near the top of the engine. after this is removed you should be able to just pull the tube right out of engine, you may find it comes out better if you twist it while pulling.

What would cause the oil dipstick tube to be loose where the tube connects to the bottom of the engine on a 2.2L 2000 Chevy S-10 P-U?
The tube slides into a grommet in the bottom of the block and the tube is also bolted to the side of the block. Either the bolt is loose/missing or the grommet is missing. The tube may be broken off or pulled out of the grommet at the bottom also.
What is the oil change capacity of 1989 GMC Vandura 5.7 V8 if your dipstick is missing?
Don't be so frugal a Dipstick to fit can be purchased at a number of different places. Examples [http://buy.autopartsreplacement.com/brand.php?make_text=gmc&model_text=van_full_size&ml=g250-vandura-004&year=1989&part_name=engine_dip_stick&my=1 Buy Me] An open or ill fitting Dipstick in the tube is an invite to suck dust & water into your engine oil. I looked in the Haynes manual... lists oil & filter change capacity as 5 qts. I will change the oil & filter, add 5 qts on level ground and insert a long rod or wire into the dipstick tube til it bottoms. Then remove it carefully and check the oil level on it. Cut it shorter so only about an inch dips into the oil, make a top cap somehow (or just hook the wire) and scribe my normal oil level onto the wire. Sounds pretty good...
How much oil to fill 2002 Honda rancher after an oil change do you check the oil level with the dipstick screwed in or unscrewed?

How much oil do you need for an oil change in a 1995 Jeep Cherokee?
Start with five quarts and then check the dipstick. Add a quarter quart at a time til the dipstick reads full. Seems to me that if you have to be told this you should be taking your jeep to the instant oil change place and letting the high school dumbasses do your oil change. Just my opinion of course.......
