Hello again Steve,
Has the dipstick always been this way?
If you keep twisting the dipstick, will it eventually go in?
Is it the original dipstick?
Have you checked the dipstick end for any aberrations?
If negative to the above, sounds like you are hitting the juncture where the tube joins the engine block therefore the tube may have to come off to check what's constricting the tube or block.
