Decisions were made, Not going to pull the heads. Seals and water pump ordered, also an X5 oil block. Cleaning of the motor and parts starts in the next few days, reassembly after that....
Also, I found a BMW DOT-R on the rear of the block, above the Valley pan, which reinforces my theory that, this engine one of the good Alusil block replacement, the numbers confirm this. So the likelihood that it has been rebuilt is now pretty much a sure thing.
Can't wait for the parts to come in so I can start reassembly.....
