For whatever reason, the 4.6 uses a unique dipstick, and there are no clear markings on it.

The oil level sensor for the E53 is the same as the E46. It's not that hard to get to, other than the need to remove the aluminum skid plate to get at it.

you got a picture of what you have? Curious to see what you are talking about.
