Hose Under Coolant Temp Sensor
I've been searching the forum for what this hose is but can't find anything. It's the hose below the coolant temp sensor. Coolant is spilling out from that area right on to the belt and being flung all over the place.
I have the N52 engine, if that helps clarify.
Any help is appreciated, see attached pics.

I did look on there but could not identify exactly which hose I needed. I have since found a video of a guy replacing this exact hose. It is a Cylinder Head Thermostat Hose and is part #11537544638 in case anyone else is trying to figure it out.

You are best off to get an aluminum hose end for this hose. This is often referred to as the Mickey Mouse hose because of the ears on the hose end that attach to the engine side. If you Google or Amazon "BMW hose flange" you will find any number of aftermarket parts that fit. If you get a new hose with a plastic end fitted, just carefully remove it and fit the aluminum part. This hose is very common for breaking after some number of years. If you have an N52, Rein makes a hose that has the aluminum parts already fitted. I think I got mine at Rockauto.
