Sorry if this is a repost, i'v tried the search option but cant figure it out properly.
Im using an M50 sump on my M52, I have both M50 and M52 dipstick tubes, I know Im supposed to use the M50 dipstick tube, but what do I do about the oil seperator, or should this be incorperated into the M50 tube? do I need the oil seperator?
Any help would be great, Thanks!

If you are using the M50 inlet manifold you can junk the oil separator and use a M50 inlet boot. and the stock E34 dipstick tube.
If you are running with the M52 inlet manifold you may aswell keep the separator valve and then you'll need to weld a little stub to the M50 dipstick tube to replicate the "Y" piece on the M52 tube.
