GX160 oil check with billet cover

How to check oil level in GX 160 with an Arc billet cover. Will stock dip stick work?

Picture will get educated answers.
If you want a random answer, I can flip a coin....
Have you compared the billet cover to the original?
Have you tried the dip stick in the billet cover?
How about this: Drain the oil. Add the correct amount of oil according to the manual, then try the dipstick to see if the dip stick is still accurate?

Sparky is right. On the predator engines, the lower port on the ARC cover is the same level as the stock cover. I'm guessing the Honda is also.

I want to see the pics of the side cover installed. Don’t be shy.
Also, if your engine is on a slant mount, checking the oil can be challenging. That wasn’t mentioned.
