Just wondering, Is everyone's dipstick at the end a purple or blueish hue? I hope thats the case and its not getting extremely hot or something. The thing runs great and oil looks fine.

Mine looks like that too. No worries. If it got hot enough to turn that dipstick end blue while running, I doubt your engine would still run... In fact, it'd likely be melted to a blob.

Same color here, absolutely no varnish or deposits on dipstick.
I've assumed the blue tint is how it came from factory

i figured as much but just wanted to make sure. Yeah hahah it would have to get extremely hot to get that color... i think youre right everything else around it would be a pile of melted aluminum and iron.

mine was blue and kinda hard to read the level so i took a little piece of sandpaper and went to town with it now it is shinny clear and easier on the eye.....

Here is the color of mine. Don't mind the oil level, that is when my turbo decided to die.

Mine is shiny bright steel. Buffed and polished so I can see my 6 liter calibration mark more easily. It has not changed back to the blued finish.

Mine looks exactly like the pic 65Corvair posted. Always has and I never really thought about that as odd before.
