    Where do these parts go?

    I bought ny car about a month ago and today i found two parts (still in there bags) in my glove box. One is a seal, other is a o-ring. I did a google search a found they come off the head. Here is the illustration I found: http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E3...cylinder_head/

    I have parts 5 & 8. The go around the guide cover (#4). What does that guide cover go to?

    My car has a small oil leak. Is it possible its coming from there?

    Thats for the camshaft seal (part 5) on the front of the head. And it is a highly likely spot for oil leaks.

      Don't let your timing belt get oiled!

      And if you do change it, use care when removing the cam sprocket, you dont want this to happen to you:
