<E36> BMW synthetic oil part numbers



To all BMW part gurus:
	Can anyone give me the part #s for BMW synthetic oils?  I believe
the part # for the new "long life" 5W-40 synthetic (spec'd for all E46 cars)
is 07 51 1 470 407; I'd like the nos. for the others (I know there is a
15w-40, and I've been told there is a 5w-30 and/or 10w-30 synthetic as well.
I have to go in for my scheduled oil maintenance and I want to get the
proper weight for the season ( make sure they don't put in 15w-40).  BTW, my
dealer tells me they do NOT put the 5w-40 "long-life" synthetic in non-e46
cars-- has anyone had a different response?  Thanks in advance. John, 98
