I was about to post that, don't forget about filter and cooler. Some add oil to filter then install, so when you start the vehicle after the oil change there is some oil in the filter. That is why most mechanics will start a vehicle after an oil change and let it run for a minute, then shut down and check the oil level again. Most of the time you have to add a little more to get up to the fill line after the oil is circulated.
