I checked the ETK of your 740. It appears the two holes on the coolant
distribution header behind the engine where I indicated to you are
plugged which means the CTS's are moved somewhere else on E38. So
don't be surprised you don't find it tomorrow.
If you provide the part number, I am sure others can tell you where to
find it.
