B58 Engine hoist lift points

Does anybody know where to hoist the B58 engine from on an engine stand? I'm planning to upgrade the front sway bars on my M240i, which for many F series requires slightly dropping the subframe. I know for many other BMW engines, there's an open slot where you can put on a tow hook or something (I think E90 tow hooks are popular for that application).

I've attached the picture of the engine bay and circled in red what looks could be something I could use? If anybody can confirm or maybe show me the correct location, that'd be great.

Remove the cover on the top of the engine and look at the rear of the engine. You can always use an intake manifold bolt.
