BMW Canada don't make anything, they have sourced something locally and added it into their parts system.

If you want to add a heater to the X5, get the stick-on silicon pads that attach to the oil pan. Several suppliers carry them, and I have provided links for them previously.

Edit: Here are two links. I have't used the Wolverine one, but it looks pretty much like the ones I have used. We used them on industrial diesel engines.
