I got mine from a 97. I believe the last time they we're used before being converted to VANOS was 9/98. The part number is 11611729528, and can be found in anything from 540's to 840's, Z8's and the X5 4.6is as well.
RealOEM.com Part Cross-reference - This should confirm exactly what years are available. If you happen to be shopping and wanna be sure, enter the last 7 of the VIN on this website and make sure it's the same part number that I listed above. While you're at it, go ahead and replace the CCV on the back of the intake manifold. Before I knew much about BMW V8's, I passed up on a perfectly good car because it smoked at startup. Ends up it was just this little valve that needed to be replaced, but it's definately a tight fit when the intake manifold is installed...at least on the 7.
