I'm assuming that this hitch isn't the one you were interested in 90 miles away, back in 2021

but is a different one. Also assuming that it's for your '06 X5, I agree with Bdc101 that it looks unlike any for the E53; both the Curt and Draw-Tite hitches have the single strap/bar that bolts to the bumper mounting plate, plus have a structural extension that bolts to a crossmember behind the rear differential.

The hitch you've got resembles one shown on etrailer.com for a 2019 X5 (searched for that year/number because I couldn't find any reference to Curt SO19 or S019 anywhere on the web), but it doesn't quite look the same https://www.etrailer.com/p-C85VV.htm...BMW&hhmodel=X5

Might be an earlier model, discontinued by Curt. I did find a similar-looking hitch on etrailer.com in the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine https://web.archive.org/web/20080501...006_BMW_X5.htm, so there might've been others.
