Thats not coming from the combustion chamber, check your valve cover where that plug came out see if there is some oil pooling there getting into the spark plug well.

Most F10 M5's suffer from oil weeps on some or all the plug seals on the RC's. Evident on the second to last plug from the right/top.

The gaps should be spot on at .22

It is normal but not right. If slight shouldn't be a problem.

Another possiblity of the ring of dirt on that plug is the plug was leaking cumbustion gas between the porcelian and the metal.

This doesn't look to be the case here as the plug metal case seems to have oil in the stamped letters and and on the threads.
