Dipstick in a different place and there is another drilling on the cylinder head just above the water outlet, not too difficult to do if you can drill and tap and put a 8mm hose tail into the side of the head.

yip there should be a blank on the rear of the engine block so thats the place it needs drilled ( where the t4 tube comes from )
 
 
or you can use the t4 tube in the front golf dipstick hole but you'll need the recalibrate the min max marks on the dipstick
