Default Transmission Dipstick for a 1996 chevy wt

We recently purchased 1996 Chevy wt for our son as a first driver. We found an extra transmission dipstick in the tool box. How do we tell is it currently has the correct transmission dipstick installed?

See if there is a part number on the dipstick and then check it against the correct part number.

Might be a replacement transmission, and they decided to keep the dipstick. Compare the two.

I would compare them and look up the part number and match it
