Material
The material in the fuel dipstick is not leather, but fibre. The insulation material like on the jeep terminal blocks. (at least on all the ones I've seen)
Yes Jordan that dip stick does all the early carriers. All the Fuel tanks are the same size and capacity (the scout had 4 tanks which included 2 x 1/2 size tanks) They would be O.K. for the Aussie carriers as well.

Went back and took another look at my dipstick holder and guess what, it still had the dipstick in it. I had always thought that what ended up being the dipstick was part of the holder. By using a hammer and a screwdriver I was able to remove the dipstick from the holder. It still had the fiber/leather material in it along with the stampings for how much fuel was in the tank.
I will post up some measurments soon for those interested.
