Have a look at the bottom of the dipstick, there should be a flat area with a number right at the bottom of the block, may need cleaning up.

in that configuration(or somethin like that!!)

thought that might be the case daz
the top ones look like a model code of sorts with the lower being the actual number,take it there are no letters on your v5 just numbers
