I've always wondered if it's normal for the engine oil dip stick to have oil only on one side of the tip when measuring oil level. One half of the tip shows oil is below min. and the other side shows the correct level at halfway. This does not change no matter how many times I re-insert it or turn it around while it's back in, whether the engine is cold or driven for over 5 miles and sat for 5 minutes before measuring oil level.

Does any one have insight?
