My fuel pump died so I went ahead and replaced the pump and the filter but unfortunately while getting the fuel pump out the plastic support ring(16141182903) cracked. I went ahead and ordered a new one but cant seem to get it to install. I've tried twisting forwards, backwards, by hand, screwing it onto the fuel pump removal tool and going at it that way. I'm at my wits end and cant find anything online or in a manual about this piece.
Hello and welcome to the forum! Take a look at the link below for some assistance with the fuel pump install and the o ring.

Thank you for the welcome. The part that i'm having issues with is actually the white plastic piece that fuel pump retainer (step12) actually screws on to.
He's wanting help installing the plastic ring that the flexible seal seats in from what I can determine. I didn't know that even came out. The part number he's referenced is for a MOTORCYCLE according to RealOem.com.

Yeah thats the part
I ordered from TurnerMotorSports.com. The part# is a match to the old one i pulled off the car originally

Still a head-scratcher. RealOem indicates it's for a motorcycle.

Just an update: Called the dealer and they had no clue(Im not blaming them, its an older model and a very unusual problem). I'm going tomorrow to pull a tank for this car, should be up and running by the weekend if all goes well.
Correct part number from bmwoemparts is
16141182903. If anyone know how to install it let me know
Not even sure what that is … is it UNDER the fuel pump? You said "support" so that seems possible. But I don't know that it's a serviceable item. Replacing the fuel pump should consist of removing the retaining ring, pulling up the fuel pump and putting in a new one. Replacing the support isn't something I've ever even heard of.
