I used the TIS from BMW. BMW TIS Online • 5' E53

It's 25 pages if you print it out, and of course you only need to print left or right as they are the same.

One of the hardest things was putting the hose on the back left of the engine. Unless you have small hands, its a bear. I thought Id be creative and use a longer line (its about 2.5 inches) but there is no room for that nonsense. Its just tight!

Be patient, and walk away when you get flustered, then come back and attack again. :)

Which hose? The OSV hose that connects to the hard oil line?

Thanks. I just printed that TIS off and will use it while cross ref'ing Bentley. While in there I am also doing the valley pan gasket, valve cover gaskets and correct the valve cover peeling paint with Bavarian blue powdercoat.
