I had one dealership say it was covered under CPO due to it making a noise, while the other dealer did not believe it should be covered under CPO. I would call around and ask if you want to go the dealer route. I think it is a pretty common problem.
I see you pretty much already came to this conclusion but just wanted to share my experience as well. Good luck!

Yes so i am dealing with the old owner to get the cpo warranty transferred into my named then I'll bring it in and have it looked at. but for the mean time i took a piece of welding rod and wrapped the the valve open which holds it still. fixed the super annoying rattle for now until i have the cpo warranty transferred over to see if bmw will replace the parts.
Also thank you for the insight!
