Welcome to the Werkz. Have a look at the exploded diagrams on this web site RealOEM.com Online BMW Parts Catalog
It will allow you to search on part description and then show you where it is located relative to other parts of the car that you might be able to recognise. I also provides part numbers for the parts. Good luck

thanks brettski. where is a good web site for buying bmw parts. i am going to need the oil separator with all the hoses. did a smoke test and found smoke shooting stright out of the valve. i got price from the dealer ship and all 4 hoses and valve is around 150. looking to see if there is a better price out there thanks.
