Thanks for the additional information.
Pick up pipe to oil pump gasket was fitted OK as did have previous problem with no oil pressure. Once fitted correctly got loads of pressure. As said frothing did occur when added extra oil so yes crank was spinning through it hence drained some off but level now below the didpstick mark.
The tube is well pushed in and sealed as was loose, therefore, cannot measure length protruding from the end but will measure length of dipstick from 'bump' stop to min mark to see if it matches 44.8.

Measure dipstick from bump to minimum mark and bump to max mark.
measure tube from top to where it goes into the block
get back to me
if you look at my photos of dipsticks and tubes you can see that there is a big distance between block and max mark.
tell me more about the frothy oil, the only way you tell that the oil is frothing is to look at the oil coming out of the cam oil feed bar.
The oil would only be in the bowl of the sump, it would not sit in the forward area

Hi Stuart,
my flying club has decided to stop producing plastic membership cards.
I reckon this idea is worth considering for us too
-
The Civil Setvice club in London which I was a member of gave a plastic credit card sized membership card initially and sent out stickers for the back every year you renewed.
it presented a high quality front with simple sticker with the membership details on it.
