Has a little neck down at the end, fits tightly OVER the dipstick tube.

Just watched a video of an ATF change on a V6 Accord, 2003-2007, and it does have the fill port like our Odyssey. Why not use instead of the dipstick ? Either method works though. That fill port fastener will be tight too ! You will need a fairly long extension on a breaker bar in order to crack it loose.

Dipstick hole is really easy to do -- you don't have to take anything apart to get to it.

Congratulations on getting the tube out and a thanks for updating the thread!

My brothers Civic 97 was also the same, the fill hole was burried right at the bottom next to the wheel cover. It has a rubber plug and remember his didn't even have it, the ATF hole was exposed to water dirt and all kinds of things. Idiotic design, how much would it cost Honda to extend it further up. Classic shortcuts in engg

Remember seeing something like this in Harbor Freight. Amazon is the best place to get it.
