Removing the securing bolt is easy, if it doesn't strip/break, but putting it back ideally takes two hands, one to align it, the other to start bolt, only room for one hand, so it took me over an hour to get the alignment and get the bolt to grab a thread. Lots of @#%&?>>!!
Now I would need to look at it again because I had both the Trans dipstick tube and oil dipstick tube securing bolts removed, but I think the trans is bolted to the oil dipstick tube via welded on bracket and you remove it first and the oil is secured to the block and is the pita to get back in place and bolt started. If it were the reverse then you can easily replace the oil dipstick tube oring, but I think not.
