Joe's outdoor power has those listed on epay, complete with pipe nipple and dipstick. They are for MTD 990, but think are same right? I got one as mine was gone. About a foot long piece of 3/4" pipe. Exact length I never measured.

The stick length is different from the 990 to the 1655, The 1655 uses a tube and large cap with stick, the 990 uses a plug with a stick on it. Probably your stick is down inside your rear differential, I've had a couple break off and go down inside.
You my want to check, they may still be available.

both my 990 & 995 have screw on caps.
what is the length of the stick on a 1655 ? isnt that what the OP really needs ? he could then at least check it

When I get out to my parts shed I'll get a measurement, My point was that his stick is inside the rear and should be retrieved with a magnet,
