Yes, kind off. The aux rad hose that runs across is hold by straight clips on the side and one that is 90 degree near the middle of fan shroud. Unable to find the 90 degree one but was able to find the straight ones. PN 13537708472. Off of a 335D, did a lot of digging to find this then stopped maybe there is one for the 90 degree one... who knows.

Was able to reinstall the clip for the left side that I broke but the middle 90 degree one it's to tight from up.It is still loose I'll try installing from under the car when I fix something else. Not 100% sure yet if it's a good fit though for the 90 degree one.

But overall I don't think the hose has enough move to crash into belts or rad fan even if there was 0 clips. I might just ditch the middle one.
