In English, these would be an intake manifold (Cosworth, pic #1) and a throttle body (pic #2,) and I don't know who's is pictured here.
That throttle body appears to be cable operated though, and the 3 series uses an ETB (electronic throttle body, motor activated/controlled by the car's ECU.) The conversion can be done, but is not easy from what I've read.
Some have done the Cosworth intake manifold conversion as well. If I remember correctly, it's a European part and hard/expensive to come by in the US.
