A very strong +1 on the tedium of this task!

While I never encountered needing to drill anything on my '06 X5 E53 N62 Engine, other E53 versions may require this step.

Another very strong +1 on the timeframe for this task if you are going solo. The labor obviously will be cut in half if two blokes have at it. Could PROBABLY be done in 2 h with electric screwdrivers and wrenches--but that requires going into knowing exactly what the hell you're doing.
