Dipstick

Hi everyone,
Was just wondering if anyone has discovered if a dipstick for checking engine oil, from another car happens to work in the CLK55AMG W209 engine. I have made marks on a long gearbox dipstick, (special tool for the W163 ML270) but obviously that can't be left in place. I remember someone posting something about using one of the other Mercedes V8's dipsticks a while ago, for checking the engine oil, but can't find the post.

Last year I saw some oil dipsticks for different models of MBZ for sale on Ebay. It might be worth a look see.
