Does anyone know a good site where someone can look up BMW tools by part number?

For example, I'm interested in swapping my rear diff for an LSD. In the Bentley manual, it recommends "33 5 124" for the N55 in order to free the drive axles from the differential.

I wanted to see if there's anything special about this particular relative to other similar tools.

I don't have any experience with BMW tools, but I did a search and found the following links that may be helpful to you and I also provided an attachment:

Useful, but it seems most of those involve tools for use on engine service with the exception of samstagsales. Some of those with a "long" BMW part number can actually be found on getbmwparts.com
