No problem.
I'll PM you when I get it and take pics and then I'll post it here too as it might be beneficial for others later on.
Also, the last I6 BMW Genuine WP I got was remanufactured in Austria IIRC.
I believe Saleri is actually brand new which weirdly enough, I almost trust better in correct remanufacturing process vs. brand new.
Anyway, it's been easily 6-7 years and things might've changed but it will interesting to compare them.
Plus, I'll compare it to the original as well. IIRC, the date stamp code should be visible on impellers to verify if it's original.
