Thanks for the quick response, was hoping somebody might know an alternate part number I could get locally. I've tried the Bmw # at the local dealership but they don't carry it

Cool, keep us posted. I try to always find an alternative for some parts. I don't have dealership local so in a pinch it's good to have back up.

Update

no dice... the gasket from napa #31534 is too small. of course i couldnt tell until i yanked the other one.. but at least now i know what im looking for, ring diameter of 2.5" and bolt diameter of 3"

funny party is.. i put the old gasket back in and retorqued the bolts, now the leak is gone, for now..

going to end up ordering the bmw part # from online somewhere and swap it out when the leak comes back
