Am I missing some hardware??
 

I found this mounting location, as well as the hose brackets that were empty.

This is under the hood, driver side wheel well area...

Nothing, i have the same. it may be somethig for another motor variant or something

awesome thanks.

yup, nothing is missing, those are for different motors in different regions of world.

You're missing the water valves, expansion tank, power steering reservoir, oil filter reservoir. Oops..that right, you have the N62 engine which moved some of those items to other locations in the engine bay. :)

The M60/M62/M62TU engines lined up the water valves, expansion tank, power steering reservoir, the oil filter reservoir, the cruise control actuator, and the evap purge valve on a bracket that is mounted to the left fender of the engine bay. Not all of the aforementioned engines may have had all of those components at the same time...it depended on engine, model, model year, etc...and if it was in an e31/e32/e38/e39/e52/e53.

In the Diesel version (which I have) the location is used for the Webasto Diesel fuel heater.

Should be an excellent mounting point for my flux capacitor I have on order. hopefully it can share the bracket with my exhaust bearing fluid reservoir as well.
