I believe the "stents" are made for the n62?
On the op m62 the coolant pipes are a slam dunk and only require 4 new orings. You can either remove the water pump or removed the collector/manifold that ties the heads together at the back of the engine. I prefer to remove the manifold at the back.
Op, check the lower radiator hose too.
