Smoking from oil filler

I noticed some smoke coming from oil filler. Should I be concerned?

2015 M5 - 50k miles

Here's a video:

Is the car running in that video? Was it just started or fully warmed up?

The engine is off. That's just the fans running after i shut it off from a 40 minute commute. Fully warmed up.

Doesnt look like its coming out with any pressure, kind of just lingering I would say your are fine. If it was coming out with any pressure as the car is running then I would be worried. Start it up and pull the cap, see if theres any pressure pushing out if you put your hand over the filler hole.

No pressure pushing out. Vacuum pressure.

It's completely normal. Any engine has the capability of doing that under the right circumstances. All of my M cars do it if I remove the cap after the engine has warmed up.
