e70 x5m oil filter cover

My oil filter cover has a drain plug on it that won't come out, so I order a new one and it does not have one. Double check at another dealer and he said theirs doesn't have one either? Anyone know what's going on here

I had the same issue with mine. Instead of stripping it worse then it already was I just went ahead and removed the entire cap/cover itself. Short sleeve and a big enough catch can.

I wasn't sure if could get it out, it's already striped. So I just ordered a new one (bmw) and was surprised it was different (without drain). Looks like to me if u get a 2010 pre turbo 5, 6,7, x5 v8,. u get the drain plug, I know both my x5 4.8 and my 745i 4.4 had drain plugs, I even have a spare drain plug I found last night from years ago
