You might try a piano repair shop. They carry these felt discs that go
under the piano keys that are round, heavy duty felt with a hole punched
in the center. Works great and looks good. Costs about a dime a dozen.
(I am in the midst of repairing my piano, 1917 model)  Doesn't really do
anything except cushion the dipstick when you slide it back.

Send me a self addressed stamped envelope, and I will send you one.

But if you have oil blowing out the dipstick tube, your problem is more
crankcase pressure, not lack of felt on your dipstick.
