All the part numbers in the vanos repair procedure are correct. BMW uses funky or generic names. I try to use more descriptive names. If there are pictures, then they will look the same as the procedure.

Only BMW dealerships carry all BMW parts. Even a dealership will likely not stock all the vanos repair parts and have to order some.

I don't know what BOE is. The piston bolt part number you provide as an example is correct, but just with a BOE suffix. You need to call Pelican Parts and find out what BOE means. Maybe it means special order.
