though i would chime in on this.

2-3 weeks ago, i change the oil on my e92 m3 myself for the first time. always had it done at a shop, decided to do it myself this time around.

the noise experienced after an oil change (most likely due to the lack of oil in the oil filter for a split second?) is much different then this.

i paid extra attention to this as it has been mentioned before. had someone else start the car the first time while i listened.

the noise experienced due to the lack of oil @ oil change is much more prolonged (1-2 seconds?) but also much quieter.

...yes, im 100% sure.
