Andy: I did check my 130 dipstick this am and it does have stamped on the engine running side, "for sataionary use engines" The full mark for engine running is about 1/2" lower on stick than full mark for engine stopped.

It is interesting to note 130 and 230 have this feature. Your 450D is the same vintage and from the same series. Would have been a lot quicker to shutt 130 or 230 down for a noon time oil check than a 450D. 130 is the only tractor I've ever owned from the 30-50 series. My brother has a 230. I'll bet I know the secret behind this. There were countless C-123 engines used on amusument rides like ferris wheels, merry go rounds, etc., etc. Those guys never shut them down from morning until late at night.
