okokok......

A little moisture is not a problem.

It is a normal part of the heating and cooling phases the system goes through.

There is moisture in your engine as well, but not enough to cause problems. This applies to transmissions as well.

The problem is that the metal the tube and dipstick are made of are not corrosion resistant.
