It`s a long shot, but was whoever checked your alignment aware that the car was RWD. I have heard horror stories of some places toeing out the front wheels as if it was a FWD - most small cars are these days. RWD cars should generally be toed-in, in the case of the 360 4 +/- 1mm.

Can`t help with your dipstick problem I`m afraid - I had a trawl on the web looking for a picture of the engine but no joy. Find one in a scrapper and have a look?. Fill it with the correct amount of oil and then see which hole gives the right reading?
