The broken plastic dipsticks is a common issue on the Mk5/Mk6 Golfs. The plastic gets brittle with the heat of the engine and then breaks after a period of time.
I would not recommend buying a 2nd hand dipstick - so either source a brand new one from VW, or buy one of these good quality aftermarket dipsticks.
