asking for big big big trouble with no dip stick....you have no way to tell how much oil you have in the car....cant check level periodicly...nothing may be leaking oil but im sure it uses oil......your flirting with disaster not having a way to check oil level

I am guessing that you put splayed mains on? I had to clearance the main cap a little so the tube could go in there. But good luck with the motor in the car.
