ECU(Electronic Control Unit) is the same as ECM (Electronic Control Module),differents words for the same thing.
However,even if your X5 was prepared for ECU re-mapping ,it wouldnt be via this plug!This would be done via the OBD2 plug or directly flashing to ECU eprom.
Going back to you original question,I cant find anything on my car(I have oem Nav) that looks like the plug in your picture and I agree with Helmuths observation because it does look like a Centronics printer plug..
I did find a photo which I download from here a while ago,so its a photo of a members cars,and this also has the same plug and no NAV...hope it helps..
