Default Dipstick interchange

-Ive got a 94 Formula with a tore up dipstick tube. Got on GMPartsdirect and the tube wasnt listed, just the stick. All the stuff I can find lists only 95-97 as fitment. Do yall have any recommendation on were to find an OEM style dipstick and tube, I really dont want a Lokar style and why would the sticks be different from 94 to 95?

I went on ebay and contacted firehawkjeff [TA Creations] about this a few weeks ago during my long tube header install. Like yours mine had a hole in the tube after removal inspection. GM discontinued the 94 tube and stick, so i had to look at the 95-97 sticks. He said as long as the tube and stick were for a 95-97 car they would fit in the 94. He said the 94 stick won't work in a 95-97 tube [not sure why]. They install the same and fit the same. He has them on his site or just give him a call!
