I have manifold from 2009 X3, it was direct swap to 128i

For it should work for you, just know that you need to buy or carefully reuse the oil hoses that are not found on stock X3 manifolds.

I would do a quick search for @DESI4life10 posts he mentioned something about hoses and manifolds and how they differ between the years. Posted in late summer 2012.
