Question Oil Temperature Reading

Being a teenager, I am good at running through oil quickly by driving to redline everywhere, so it would be nice if I could monitor the oil temperature easily. Word on the street is that the E53's don't have an onboard oil temp sensor, but that was on an M3 forum so... Also, does anyone know of a product that could read the oil temp from the obd2 port that doesn't cost like $200 because I'm on a budget. I also read something about specialized PID codes that you would have to use with an obd2 device in order to actually find the information that I'm looking for. Any tips, advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
