Default Broken Dipstick?

Hey Guys,

Was pullin out the dipstick checkin my oil levels, and when I tried to put it back in it wouldn't fit snugly back into the sleeve. I remembered a few people talking about broken dipsticks, so I wanted to see if mine was indeed broken, and what part I would need. Thanks.
