looking at this: http://realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=BT52&mospid=47797&btnr=18_0499&hg=18&fg=20

it looks like a crossflow section?

edit: it says on that link it's a rear center muffler
 
Hey Mat,

I think it is just a small additional silencer - on the OEM M X pipe there is one where the pipes "cross"; it is not there on (for example) the Supersprint or H&S versions of the X pipe.

Don't rely wholly on my word but I am pretty sure you can do without it.

In case t helps here is the Supersprint X pipe without it:
