I've taken the ps pump off and on a few M62. They were not in the X5 but I bet it's similar. There is one near impossible to remove 13 mm bolt/nut on the back side attaching to the back of the alternator I believe.

Using a through-hole socket turned out to be the spot on perfect offset. A low-profile socket may also work or a box end with offset end.

I had the alternator out when I did the ps but I don't think it would matter.

Find a YouTube video or repair manual steps.
