So I bought the oil dipstick 15650-RNA-A00 in (mercadolibre México) it said that it worked for the 8th and 9th generation, but when I ask chatGPT it says the original dipstick code is 15650-R1A-A01 or 15650-R1A-A02, and that the one I bought is a few milimeters longer so the oil level shows a little higher than it would show on the original dipstick, does someone know if this is true?

Currently the oil level shows a couple milimeters over the max mark, so if it's not really showing the right level it could be even a bit more over the max. I understand if that is true I should drain some oil until the oil level is a couple mm lower than the max mark.
