Dude is slang, so the Spanish equivalents are slang words (but there are many different slang words in each Spanish speaking country).
Mexico and Central America: Vato, güey, carnal,
Venezuela and some other Caribbean countries: pana
Ecuador: ñaño
Perú: Pata, causa
And others.
But, you know, almost in all Latin America, young people say “brother”, as a slang word.
And yes, the most correct translation is TIPO. But there is a difference. When you talk to a friend, you never say: Hola, TIPO (Hey, dude). You say, Hola, carnal; hola, pana; Hola causa.
Tipo is used just in a very impersonal phrase, like “That dude over there” (Ese tipo de allá”)

Is a slang word that depends on the country it has it’s indicative, but in general you can say “tipo” like “ese tipo” that dude” or that guy.
Hope this helps!
