There is much more in common than just the block, most of the main engine (block, head, manifolds, small turbo, many bolt on accessories are the same as well.
OP if you are doing a swap ex: replacing a blown engine then you should have all the X5 specific parts already and you can just swap them over prior to install. Also, RealOEM.com can give you a definitive list of what the differences are.
