Be sure you look at both sides of the dip stick, I've seen guys look at their dip stick and think they are full of oil but they are 2 qt's. low. Always go by the low side of the dip stick. I don't know what puts the oil on the high side of the dip stick but the engine can be very low on oil and one side of the dip stick will read full. Thats why you check both sides and go with the low side of the dip stick. If your low on oil one side will read lower than the other side. Low side is right the high side is wrong.

It is because the engine sits at an angle. The side that reads low is almost always the drivers side of the dip stick.

I agree it's 100% the windage tray. But, the engine is at an angle.
