I fixed a customers E34 530i who had valve noise and everyone on the boards said to overfill the crankcase to stop the noise. I still don't see how that made sense since all the oil is pumped up to their anyways, just like it is here with VANOS. Proper weight of oil is probably the safest bet, and being topped up, that's just something that is expected. I always carry an extra quart of oil with me and check it every other time or so when I get gas.
