    Oil Pressure Switch just screws out with a good shifter. New one won't set you back more than twenty bucks on a bad day. Not sure about the dipstick off the top of my head.

    Not sure if there is a bracket holding the tube to the engine, usually about 1/2 way up or it may even be on the base of the tube, once you have undone it, just pull it up.

    Just undo the bolt holding the bracket of the dip stick, then pull it out the O-ring will just slip off so just take the O-ring up to a place like Bursons or sprint wont be much could even get it from a rubber joint (clark Runbber)
