Need Help identifying part name
 
Hi, I need to replace my front lower control arms in my 2004 BMW X5 3.0. In addition to the control arms there's this part that my mechanic couldn't tell me the name of in English. I tried looking at parts diagram but I'm as dumb as rocks when it comes to this sort of thing. The part needed is marked with the awesome red ninja star. Thanks so much.

The part with the Ninja Star would be your Front Control Arm also called a tension strut, here is a photo of the part for reference.
