[N62]Does anyone have the correct orientation for the valve spring at cylinder 5?

[mistermetoo]

Just discovered that the reason why I was getting constant misfire was because of the spring on valve cylinder 5.

also, should i get another spring since the one i found was messed up? i could always just place the one existing back in there..


I just need a picture- the description in the BMW service manual was not sufficient for me...

this is what it currently looks like:



was hoping someone out there has their valve cover off and could help me pinpoint how to do this.



thanks in advance!

It appears to rest in the V-saddle next to it
I would replace the return spring & intermediate lever if damaged
