Oil Dipstick Tube Melting

Yahoo Message Number: 103208
Just had my annual maintenance today at Cummins. The Tech showed me the oil dipstick tube (plastic) melted as it is right next to the manifold on my 02 Intrigue 370 ISL.  Not losing much oil, but want to get it replaced soon. They did not have anything close for a replacement.
 Anyone had this issue or know where I could possible procure the part?

Thanks
Ron

I had the same experience a few years ago on our '01 Intrigue #11238 ISC 350. It sure made a darn mess of the engine compartment, rear of coach, and tow'd. It was repaired/replaced with some bulk tubing they had in stock at a truck repair shop in Orange City, Iowa. They also rerouted it somewhat to get it further from the heat source.
It's been fine since.
