They look like the rivets on the right. Smaller size head, long pin.

You didn't provide a link to the diagram you posted...but wasn't there a part nbr for item
#6?
If you're not familiar with the part database's set-up...the numbers that are encircled...indicates "hardware". And in most cases...there's an extra hardware index drawn into the illustration to give an idea of what it looks like. In this case, #5, #6,& #7 (all are encircled) are hardware...and they also have their own special index drawn within the overall diagram.
The encircled
#6 in the diagram shows that specific blind rivet holds item
#3 (sill) to the vehicle...and the special index shows what iem #6 looks like in the lower right of the diagram.
Without a direct link to the diagram...I drilled down to find the diagram you posted using my e53's info...and there is an 11 digit BMW part nbr listed for that blind rivet. I'd say it looks very much like the "real" images you posted that you're looking for.
Go back to that diagram you posted (did you use your VIN?)...then scroll down to item
#6 below that diagram to get the BMW part nbr for your e53. You can then price shop it by typing "BMW xx xx x xxx xxx" into a google search box, or use it if you have a fav online BMW vendor, or use it with your local BMW dealership's parts dept.
Good luck.
