The first model 1932 engines had the dipstick at the right rear of the cylinder blocks, the more common type had the dipstick on the left hand side of the engine into the aluminium oilpan and the rare steel oilpan had its dipstick in the same place which looked similar to the 1933 - 34 V8 engine oilpan. The easyest way to check that it is a 1932 engine is do as Ken suggests, the water drain petcocks should be facing vertically down.
