Not E90 M3 exactly, but I have had good success tightening down my 540i (which has magnesium valve covers like the S65 motor) to stop a weep.

Use a 1/4" drive ratchet and a 10mm socket and gently apply pressure seeing if the bolt wants to tighten down any further. Be careful, as you do not want to strip the threads out of the head (which is why I said use a 1/4" drive not 3/8").
Got it, sounds interesting mate, cheers.
