I am open to any tips or ideas as to how to find one, or make one, if I knew the exact length.

Once you find something to work at a salvage yard or other, change the oil, using the filter size and the amount of oil required. Start it up for circulation, let is set for a spell and then scribe this as the full mark. This should probably be done with any of them and not necessarily assuming that it's correct from the factory.
