Check at your GM dealer for a 96'ish cavalier "5 spd" trans dipstick. It's about $10 and 4" long. Keep your original in the trailer. It's been about 10 yrs since I got mine and I believe that is what it's out of.
If they cant find it in the book, have the parts guy walk to the parts bin with you. I believe trans dipsticks are in group "4.020". If they keep their inventory by factory catalog numbers, and the dealer is large, they will have all of them in the exact same place in the warehouse.
