What engine does my 2004 E83 X3 3.0 have?

[bcolins]

I have been doing google and forum searches in an effort to determine what my engine designation is. I have seen reference to N52 and M54, but so far no definitive listing.

I have a 2004 E83 X3 3.0 with Sport and Premium packages. Can someone tell me what my engine designation is or where to find it?

Thanks, Brian in San Antonio
