It's an OEM Bosch! I got it from eBay and i have claimed a return or exchange for it. I am waiting currently !!
Do you know anything about the (The BMW Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) I have read it might be the issue of the starting before i can say it is the starter ?What do you think?

The OE MAF is a Siemens product.

It means, Siemens VDO was the original Mas Air Flow Sensor supplier to BMW when your car was manufactured.

Yes Siemens was the OE but I believe now it is bosch. I think it has been discontinued.

I have never heard of that. Post a link. The IBS has nothing to do with the starter engaging the flywheel other than helping to provide the power. What I think I am hearing from your video is the starter engaging the flywheel too long.
