For transmission parts, the California Transmission Supply company has a ton of parts and supplies. I used them when i did a fluid drain fill and was amazed at the parts they have on their website. Ctsc.com
Time for unto fire up the pressure washer and degreaser.

Just get a couple assorted economy paint brushes for 5 bucks from homedepot, a 96 cent spray bottle, and a gallon of simple green for 9 bucks. Spray, agitate with paint brushes, rinse clean and dry with compressed air.
Take your time it will look factory new

Stunt... You must be a professional camera man or something!! This thread is truly life changing!!
I wish you had the N62, so I could learn even more about my engine I find it interesting that your M62 has the cyclone oil separator, just located in a different spot then the 3.0 version, and what on earth is the pipe that is going from the CCV to the transmission?? Thanks for the awesome thread stunt, we all look forward to video of your success!!

Thanks for the encouragements and kind words!
Made excellent progress this afternoon. After covering all the electrical connectors with balloons, it was time to get the engine outside. After the initial rinse off using engine degreaser I then spent some time with Simple Green and a small brush to get the stuff in the nooks and crannies. After blowing it off real good with compressed air, I sat it back down on the lifting table on some 2x4s and began removing vacuum lines and such. In this next series of shots, I'm documenting where some of these go for future reference. Next I removed the A/C compressor, bracket and water pump Another angle showing where the A/C compressor goes. I'll need to go back and hit some hidden spots here with the Simple Green again. Rear coolant cross pipe removed Intake manifold removed Top view Rear view CCV drain pipe is pretty clogged. I'll be removing it and blowing it out. So here's the engine/tranny on the lift table at this stage Next I pulled the valve covers View on table from the other side Front view. Ready to remove the front covers Finally a shot of the front sub frame and steering rack. That's it for today. Hopefully I'll get a chance to work on it some more tomorrow afternoon.

Lol, good eye! That's actually my old Yamaha DSP A1 that was delegated to shop duties about 6 years ago when HDMI came out. It gave up the ghost this spring (display went dead), and I pulled an even older Yamaha A-720 integrated amp out of the closet to drive the shop stereo (pair of 20 year old klipsch forte speakers).

Ordered this last night:
BMW M60 M62 Camshaft Alignment Timing Tools Kit with FREE112250 | eBay And the Beisan Systems M62TU Vanos Press tool along with their Vanos Seals Repair Kit. Once I'm done, I figured I can sell both for close to what I paid, and will end up paying no more than if I had rented those tool to begin with. I'll hold on to them for a while though, in case something doesn't go right and I'll have to do it again.
