How much oil do you think may be unaccounted for?
Problem here is if it significant, like 1/2 quart, then the dip stick will show low and oil will be added resulting in to much oil in the system.
This seems like it would be good practice when changing oil to get as much in the sump as possible for draining.
I check before I drive after car has been sitting all night. I also try and keep it a bit under the full mark and 1 dash under the full mark on the gauge
