Derick none of you guides are going to show how long any dipstick is you dipstick!! stop the spam derrick
Make sure that you are using the correct oil for your car. To get an idea of how much oil you need; the gap between the marks on the dipstick usually represents around 1 litre of oil, so you know that if your oil mark was at the minimum, you need around a litre to top it up.
From the block deck surface to the "full" mark on the dipstick should be somewhere in the 10-7/8" to 11" range. I've compared dipsticks from several manufacturers, including genuine GM parts and several aftermarket pieces and they all fall in that range, with 10-7/8" being the most common measurement.

The oil dipstick is located at the back of the engine. If you look at the engine from a top view it is located at about 11 o'clock. It's black.

I assume that the vehicle has a rotating knob on the left side of the dash for four wheel drive. It may have been put into 4 low by mistake. To get it out, start the vehicle and put it in drive, select 4 low on the 4 wheel drive selector, take your foot off the brake and get the vehicle rolling at a walking pace (1-2 m.p.h.) then move the selector to 4 high, stop the vehicle and move selector to 2 high.

Hi there,
DANGER....this is telling you there is NOT enough oil pressure. The clatter you hear means inadequate oil is reaching the cams or lifters.
Can you confirm you have used the correct grade & viscosity of oil? Is oil leaking?
Please re-check the oil level again - allow vehicle to sit for 5mins, then check oil level on the ENGINE dipstick. If dipstick level is up to the full mark, then assume you have enough oil and let the engine idle for 5mins.
If the clatter remains, then suspect a problem with the oil pump, or oil filter causing a blockage.
Cheers,
