Scott, can you tell us a bit more about the "50d" engine please? Will this be the (E65 740d-745d) v8 diesel successor or an I6 evolution? In which models will it appear? What about the output? Thanks again!

That caught my eye too, and I am curious as well.
It sounds to me like an evolution of (or replacement for) the M67 V8 last used in the E65 745d. That is to say, this will likely be a new V8 diesel. I would guess power close to 400hp and at least 600 ft-lb of torque.
