3.0
32411095526 Intake manifold
32416767136 radiator return line
32416851217 reservoir

4.6
32416763977 Suction pipe
16121180242 radiator return line
32416851217 reservoir

Getting ready to replace these same parts on my 4.8
4.8
32416758958 Suction hose
32416767138 radiator return line
32416851217 reservoir

Of course you'll have to source the proper hose clamps.

I've always used Pentosin CHF11S on all my vehicles.

Funny enough I had to replace these on my other daughter's e83 and my e38.


Heck, while I'm here:
