Dip stick tube

Hi everyone. I took my Cummins/RC to get the front end aligned today. When I got there while they were under it informed me I had a leak. When I got it home I noticed it was over my clutch cylinder and coming from right at the dip stick tube. I have never had one out. Whats invovled to remove? Is there simply an o-ring that seals it? I didnt get a chance to check it when I got home as I have several acres of lawn to mow. Tomorrow I hope to see if it simply pulled out of the block. But I thought I would ask my Cummins brethern before I even touch it what to look for. Thank you

Thanks Andrew. I duess I will call the dealer in the morning and order a new plastic tube. I dont think mine has a clamp either. If it is cracked I hope it comes off without removing the starter. Anyways, thank you for the heads up.
