The M60?

There's a lot of 1993-95 e31/e32/e34/e38 M60(B30) & M60(B40) owners here in the USA that had the Nikasil issues where they had to get replacement engines or warranties extended to 100K miles/6 years from BMW that may disagree with how great the M60 engine was.
And many BMW owners that had models with the venerable
M30 engine may take umbrage with your statement. BMW squeezed almost 30 years of life outta the M30 engine...whereas the engines since then have had a much shorter life-span....there's been some great
modern BMW engines since...but none the long-lived life of the M30.
Just a thought...not an argument.
BTW...N62B44 engine with 109k ...but I'm only 3 weeks into ownership...so I have my fingers crossed for a good run...I hope time is on my side.
