Where is the oil dip stick tube on a 1979 Pontiac firebird 301 engine?

The oil dipstick tube on a 1979 Pontiac Firebird with the 301 engine is located on the passenger side (right side) of the engine block. It's usually fairly close to the front of the engine, but the exact position might vary slightly depending on accessories and how the engine bay is configured. Look for a long, slender tube extending from the valve cover area towards the front of the engine. The dipstick itself will be attached to this tube.
