Bop states that it’s a 5qt pan and with a filter change if you do not prime the filter then add 6 qts.
So I need to ask if the upper dip stick tube was driven into the block all the way, if not it will shorten up on the dip stick reading, I have seen this before, but of course there is no guarantee that a repro upper tube is not longer then stock or the repro stick is shorter then stock.
The new seal in the cup on the top of the stick might be longer then stock also.
A 1/8th of a inch here and a 1/8th inch there can make a difference!
If you want to just play it plenty safe then I would add another 1/2 Qt and call it done.
