There is oil pressure inside of the engine. Do you recall the old days when every car had a oil pressure gauge on the dash board? Now days a light comes on when the oil pressure is low. So if the oil dip stick is not secure the pressure of the oil in the engine, when the engine is running of course,will force the oil out of any low pressue area, in this case the dip stick tube.
