Oil Level 4.0 AJ-V8 x308

I read somewhere there was a TSB regarding the oil level on the 4.0 liter. I have an early car, 97 build date. I can't seem to find it anymore, the TSB not the car. Is there an upgraded dipstick or oil level?
thanks!!

Has anything else in lubrication system been changed or just the dipstikc? Meaning can one safely change the <00 dipstick to the revised version (1 litre more in sump)?

Yes you can use new stick and run more oil. I did so on my 99
