It's toward the rear of the pan with the stiffening plate partially blocking it (you can see it with the plate on, but you just can't access one of the bolt with the plate in place). Mine is bad too for the past 2 years, but was/is too lazy to remove the stiffening plate to replace it.

Very familiar with where in the M62 motor because it's placement interferes with a few things like making not all the pan bolts being the same length! Not cool BMW.
