So does anyone have and recommendations on removing this dent? I was thinking about making a puller with a big bolt threaded into the oil dipstick hole and maybe some heat?

I was also thinking about just leaving it as it doesnt leak, but the dipstick dowsnt thread in properly thus ( cant check oil level properly, and oil light wont come on at the right time.)

However I could do an oil change and put in the exact amount stated in the manual and make a new mark on the dipstick.

I'll take any suggestions at this point. Trying to avoid replacing it.

i would not touch it if it is not leaking. just mark the new full and ride it. oil liget seems not to come on until it is down 2l of oil based on last season on 05 rx.
