In case you can't remove a busted dipstick tube by pulling it and your only option (as mine was) is to drain and drop the pan. You can use a deepwell 3/16 socket, slide it up from below and tap it a few times with a small hammer. It pushes that puppy right up and outta there. Just thought I'd post that "discovery" as I just finished doing that.
Also, if the pan was anywhere near where you were, take a magnet and move it around in the pan to get any metal crumbles that might have fallen into the oilpan. Hope it helps someone.
