How many miles?
I had the same X5.
Just hit the 140k mark. (10/01 prod) This new noise is making me hope I'm not sitting on a time bomb

Also the noise doesn't go away with engine warm up, consistent from cold to hot. I've noticed I gained a new vaccum leak prior to this as well. After high rpm (5k-7k) it almost sounds like a BOV release from turbo spool. Not high pitched but noticeable from the cabin, windows up. I'm not sure if this all correlates with each other...
