Will that be the best way to follow the diagnosis?

The 'cyclone' oil separator is in the M62 engine. Your N62 engine has a simple valve built into the head. There's no cyclone underneath.
The correct way to clean the valve is to remove the valve cover. I was lazy and cleaned mine by blowing carb cleaner down the hole and into the engine. Then I immediately changed the oil. This is NOT the correct way. Here's more info with a good explanation of failures: https://www.meeknet.co.uk/e31/BMW_M6...entilation.htm Underside of the valve cover:

So the parts for replacing the valves are now around $80 on ECS but a pair of aftermarket (new) on Amazon is $13.86. Anything wrong with the Amazon (Dade) item - it has good reviews?
