Unfortunately when trying to check my oil level in the mini the dipstick snapped in half and I was wondering if it would be worth getting it out? I may need a mechanic to do so as il mess it up!

Have you used a torch to see where it connects to the oil pan and if you can unto it, to retrieve it and try and get the dipstick out that way?
Yeah it’s a weird one that goes across the engine it’s behind the radiator
