Possible the dip stick end broke off, tube isnt seated into the block fully, changed out with some aftermarket piece that isn't the right length, or just plain low on oil, OP says checking with motor running, you only check a trans with it running. Engine oil only gets checked when warm and off. Can't over look the small details
You are correct. I just went to what made the most sense. Figured he would have noticed a broken dipstick, or unseated tube. Forgot he was a complete rookie.
You hit all the details I missed. Thank you.
