oil dipstick filler tube Audi 80 1990 model

Have broken orange plastic capping at top of
dipstick filler tube

(where the actual dipstick rests when fully home)

Now losing oil through top of dipstick filler tube
and making a mess of engine !

Does anyone know if the 'orange plastic' is
replaceable with the dipstick 'in situ'

OR

if dipstick filler tube has to be removed - how
is it removed from the engine block ?

Any advice would be very welcome.

I had this problem a couple of years ago. For lack of a better name, the orange dip stick tube tube neck is available at any Audi dealership for about $5 - $10 bucks. Good luck.
