cheapest valve I could find was at ECS ($5.74) but shipping put it higher than ebay ($8.79 shipped)

Bmwmini 61688220822 Genuine Check Valve | eBay

BMW wanted $16

Just got back from fixing it. The valve was stuck just like you said and I tried to open it but quickly gave up, as I would indeed have broken it. I fixed it with the help of silicone spray, sprayed inside it from both sides and waited a few minutes, repeated the process a few more times to be sure and it worked.

Installed it back on the car....said a few prayers....pushed the stalk and hey presto!

My 07 328xi's (also with just over 100k miles) rear washer sprayer just stopped working

Fingers crossed that the process to diagnose the issue is similar...
