Default How big a job is engine overhaul on a 129?

Just wondering...being that mine goes through alot of oil. I do know that the flange that holds the dipstick has been loose for a long time. When I take out the stick I also have to hold the bottom portion or else the whole thing wants to lift out. Could this be contributing to oil loss?

Having recently had off the ACR cover (which also appears to be part of the whole dipstick assembly), might it be worth it to replace that whole thing?

The engine was overhauled once - probably well over 20 years ago. I'm assuming it's a substantial job (?)

Thanks for any advice...
