This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 22316754088 (22-31-6-754-088) and is described as the xDrive transfer case mount for E53 X5 manufactured before 10/2003.

A failed transfer case bushing/mount can lead to serious problems, including missed shifts (on manual transmission models), too much drivetrain movement, premature failure of engine and differential mounts, stress on driveshaft u-joints and flex discs, unwanted vibration, and more. Fortunately change the engine mount is a fairly simple task, especially on this mount which uses a very simple design.
This part is manufactured by an aftermarket supplier of European auto parts, including many mounts and bushings. While not carrying OEM status, this part follows the design of the original very closely and uses similar materials. An aftermarket part may even have the same TUV approval as its OEM counterpart. The brand may even be OEM to another manufacturer besides BMW. This aftermarket brand has a two year warranty - the same as Genuine BMW and OEM brands.
