I am good with a wrench. Put race cars together back in the day, lol. The only reason I asked was because I wasn't standing in front of the X5 at the time. The BMW guy called and told me some secondary line had a crack and wanted $567 to fix. I asked him for the part #, checked realoem.com, and because i couldn't get a picture in my mind of where the heck that line was, I asked here.

I got the X5 from the stealership without getting it fixed. I looked under the hood and notice a few screws were holding it together. I got the part new (oem) off a seller on ebay for $25.

Searching the web I came upon this:
"Vacuum air line for M62 engines. Commonly bent during the removal of water pump, can cause running issues."

Chances are I bent this pipe when I changed the water pump in December.
