Where is S430 transmission dipstick?

Unfortunately for us new Benz owners Mercedes decided to omit the dipstick. The tube itself is there but its only got a cover and nothing in it. You can look on eBay or you can order it through the dealership. The latter being the pricier option but you get the right part. I ordered mine through eBay and was sent the wrong one! (it was too long).
